De novo Fungal Genome Assembly
BMKGENE offers versatile solutions for fungal genomes, catering to diverse research needs and desired genome completeness. Utilizing short-read Illumina sequencing alone allows the generation of a draft genome. Short-reads and long-read sequencing using Nanopore or Pacbio are combined for a more refined fungal genome with longer contigs.
Service Features
With two possible options to choose from depending on the desired degree of genome completeness:
● Draft Genome Option: Short-read sequencing with Illumina NovaSeq PE150.
● Fungal Fine Genome Option:
Genome Survey: Illumina NovaSeq PE150.
Genome Assembly: PacBio Revio (HiFi reads) or Nanopore PromethION 48.
Service Advantages
● Multiple Sequencing Strategies Available: For different research goals and requirements of genome completeness
● Complete Bioinformatics Workflow: This includes genome assembly and the prediction of multiple genomic elements, functional gene annotation, and contig anchoring.
● Extensive Expertise: With over 12,000 microbial genomes assembled, we bring over a decade of experience, a highly skilled analysis team, comprehensive content, and excellent post-sales support.
● Post-Sales Support: Our commitment extends beyond project completion with a 3-month after-sale service period. During this time, we offer project follow-up, troubleshooting assistance, and Q&A sessions to address any queries related to the results.
