High-quality Neurospora tetrasperma genome assemblies

This dataset contains ten high-quality genome assemblies from ten strains of the fungal genus Neurospora. The genomes are released together with the paper "Large-scale suppression of recombination predates genomic rearrangements in Neurospora tetrasperma" by Sun et al., which is published in Nature Communications (2017).

Three of the genomes have been assembled using Illumina paired-end and matepair data, which have been scaffolded using optical mapping. The other seven have been assembled using only PacBio data, but have also been error-corrected using Illumina paired-end reads. Raw PacBio reads have been deposited in the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) as part of BioProject PRJNA398702. Raw Illumina reads have also been deposited at SRA in the BioProject PRJNA239947 (matepair reads) and PRJNA239947 (paired-end reads). See Sun et al. for further details.
