The assembled and annotated genome of the pigeon louse <i>Columbicola columbae</i> , a model ectoparasite

2020-10-09

Abstract excerpt

The pigeon louse Columbicola columbae is a longstanding and important model for studies of ectoparasitism and host-parasite coevolution. However, a deeper understanding of its evolution and capacity for rapid adaptation is limited by a lack of genomic resources. Here, we present a high-quality draft assembly of the C. columbae genome, produced using a combination of Oxford Nanopore, Illumina, and Hi-C technologi...
