De novo assembly of Dekkera bruxellensis: a multi technology approach using short and long-read sequencing and optical mapping

We present a genomic dataset sampled from the yeast Dekkera bruxellensis using three different technologies: Illumina short-read sequencing, PacBio long-read sequencing and optical mapping. The Illumina data consists of four different libraries of differing insert sizes (ie. paired-end fragments and mate-pair libraries), following the ALLPATHS recipe. The purpose was to generate a draft genome assembly of high quality by combining these three different and somewhat complementary technologies.
