Single Individual Genome of Lipoptena mazamae

Generation of a genome assembly from a single individual adult using long-read sequencing and Hi-C scaffolding. The goal of this project was to generate a high-quality reference genome for Lipoptena mazamae to enable comparison with related Hippoboscidae, including the European deer ked (Lipoptena cervi).

本研究采用长读长测序（long-read sequencing）与Hi-C支架组装（Hi-C scaffolding）技术，从单只成年个体中构建基因组组装序列。本项目的核心目标是为马氏鹿虱蝇（Lipoptena mazamae）构建高质量参考基因组，以支持其与亲缘关系相近的虱蝇科（Hippoboscidae）类群（包括欧洲鹿虱蝇（Lipoptena cervi））的比较研究。
