Contextualising samples: Supporting reference genomes of European biodiversity through sample and associated metadata collection

The paper describes the ERGA Pilot project's efforts to establish standards for sample collection and metadata gathering to support reference genome generation for European biodiversity.

Benchmarking ultra-high molecular weight DNA preservation methods for long-read and long-range sequencing

The paper benchmarks DNA preservation methods for long-read and long-range sequencing across vertebrates, finding that optimal methods vary by taxa, tissue, and application.

A hybrid de novo genome assembly of the honeybee, Apis mellifera, with chromosome-length scaffolds

The paper presents a new honeybee genome assembly using hybrid sequencing technologies, resulting in a more contiguous and complete genome with chromosome-length scaffolds.

A comprehensive model of DNA fragmentation for the preservation of High Molecular Weight DNA

The paper develops a theoretical framework to understand and measure DNA fragmentation, aiming to preserve high molecular weight DNA for long-read sequencing applications.

Amplicon sequencing of the 16S-ITS-23S rRNA operon with long-read technology for improved phylogenetic classification of uncultured prokaryotes

The paper develops a method using long-read sequencing to improve phylogenetic classification of uncultured prokaryotes by amplifying and sequencing the 16S-ITS-23S rRNA operon.
