Small but mitey: high-quality long-read assembly of a streamlined mite genome from contaminated sequencing data
)
Sequenced and assembled two Myrtaceae genomes in 2018 using 10x Genomics linked reads
- Rhodamnia argentea (Malletwood) & Syzygium oleosum (Blue lilly pilly)
- Pilot data for an ARC Linkage Project with the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney
- Develop conservation populations of Myrtaceae in face of threats from Myrtle Rust
- Invasive fungal pathogen (Arrived 2010)
- Affects >390 native species
