<i>De novo</i> sequencing, diploid assembly, and annotation of the black carpenter ant, <i>Camponotus pennsylvanicus</i> , and its symbionts by one person for $1000, using nanopore sequencing

Abstract excerpt
The black carpenter ant ( Camponotus pennsylvanicus ) is a pest species found widely throughout North America east of the Rocky Mountains. Its frequent infestation in human buildings justifies close genetic examination and its large size and small genome make it ideal for individual sequencing. From a single individual I used long-read nanopore sequencing to assemble a genome of 306 Mb, with an N50 of 565 Kb, and...
