Assemblies of seven Drosophila species using PacBio sequencing data. Drosophilidae

We sequenced and de novo assembled several Drosophila species using PacBio sequencing data. As a preliminary result of our project, we now have assemblies for 7 species, 3 of which were whole-genome sequenced for the first time. With these data, we will perform comprehensive analysis, including detecting new genes, studying the functions of interested genes and tracing the evolution of transposable elements.
