D-P-SCH project (@inrae-dpt-spe.bsky.social funded) generates high-quality de novo reference genomes for pests lacking data: the bean pod borer (Etiella zinckenella) 700Mb heterozygous genome assembled at chromosome level using optimized @nanoporetech.com long reads @lipme-toulouse.bsky.social

Impressive first @nanoporetech.com cDNA sequencing run at @lipme-toulouse.bsky.social ! Over 90M full-length transcripts generated in just 54 hours from A. thaliana leaf samples. Thanks to Matilda from the QIP team for the sample preparation! #Nanopore #LongReadSequencing #Transcriptomics

Testing a new DNA extraction protocol on a bee sample @lipme-toulouse.bsky.social. @nanoporetech.com assembly is impressive. Looks like most of the 16 chromosomes are single T2T contigs! Thanks @tiboleroyinen.bsky.social and your team for providing the larvae sample!
