Endosymbionts' genomes extracted from tick metagenomes

We have reconstructed the genomes of bacterial endosymbionts (Coxiella-LE, Francisella-LE and Coxiella burnetii) from the tick metagenomes of the BioProject PRJCA002242 available on the BIGD database (https://bigd.big.ac.cn/). Jia et al. (Jia et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2020.07.023; the original paper of the BioProject PRJCA002242) reported major discoveries on the genetic basis of hematophagy and vector capacities in ticks. Our re-examination of the tick metagenomic datasets shows that nutritional endosymbionts required for hematophagy were also widely present. They were misidentified as tick-borne pathogens. This present dataset includes these new assembled genomes of tick endosymbionts.我们从BIGD数据库（https://bigd.big.ac.cn/）公开的生物项目PRJCA002242的蜱宏基因组数据中，重建了细菌内共生体（bacterial endosymbionts）——柯克斯体样内共生体（Coxiella-LE）、弗朗西斯菌样内共生体（Francisella-LE）以及贝氏柯克斯体（Coxiella burnetii）——的基因组。 贾等（Jia et al., 2020, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2020.07.023；即生物项目PRJCA002242的原始研究论文）报道了蜱吸血行为与媒介能力遗传基础方面的重大发现。我们对该蜱宏基因组数据集的重新分析显示，蜱吸血所需的营养型内共生体同样广泛存在，而此前这些内共生体被误鉴定为蜱传病原体。 本数据集包含上述新组装的蜱源内共生体基因组。
