De novo assembly of a long-read Amblyomma americanum genome

Genome assemblies of Amblyomma americanum generated from PacBio HiFi sequencing of 50 individual female ticks. This repository contains the unphased diploid assembly generated by the Flye assembler (Arcadia_Amblyomma_americanum_asm001.fasta). In addition, there are two associated fasta files containing sequences generated by submitting the unphased diploid assembly to separation by the Purge_Dups pipeline (purged pseudo-haploid assembly and haplotig assembly).
