Single-cell transcriptomics for the 99.9% of species without reference genomes

2021-07-10

Abstract excerpt

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) is a powerful tool for cell type identification but is not readily applicable to organisms without well-annotated reference genomes. Of the approximately 10 million animal species predicted to exist on Earth, >99.9% do not have any submitted genome assembly. To enable scRNA-seq for the vast majority of animals on the planet, here we introduce the concept of “ k -mer homology,” comb...
