Project description:Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important staple crops in the world, along with maize and rice. More than 50 plant viruses are known to infect wheat worldwide. To date, there are no studies on the identification of viruses infecting wheat in Korea. Therefore, we investigated virome in wheat from three different geographical regions where wheat is mainly cultivated in Korea using Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) sequencing and Illumina sequencing. Five viral species, including those known to infect wheat, were identified using high-throughput sequencing strategies. Of these, barley virus G (BVG) and Hordeum vulgare endornavirus (HvEV) were consistently present in all libraries. Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) and wheat leaf yellowing-associated virus (WLYaV) were first identified in Korean wheat samples. The viruses identified by ONT and Illumina sequencing were compared using a heatmap. Though the ONT sequencing approach is less sensitive, the analysis results were similar to those of Illumina sequencing in our study. Both platforms served as reliable and powerful tools for detecting and identifying wheat viruses, achieving a balance between practicality and performance. The findings of this study will provide deeper insights into the wheat virosphere and further help improve disease management strategies.

Project description:Whole-genome sequencing data from wild-caught individuals of closely related North American killifish species (Fundulus xenicus, Fundulus catenatus, Fundulus nottii, and Fundulus olivaceus) were obtained using long-read Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) PromethION and short-read Illumina platforms. Draft de novo reference genome assemblies were generated using a combination of long and short sequencing reads. For each species, the PromethION platform was used to generate 30-45× sequence coverage, and the Illumina platform was used to generate 50-160× sequence coverage. Illumina-only assemblies were fragmented with high numbers of contigs, while ONT-only assemblies were error prone with low BUSCO scores. The highest N50 values, ranging from 0.4 to 2.7 Mb, were from assemblies generated using a combination of short- and long-read data. BUSCO scores were consistently >90% complete using the Eukaryota database. High-quality genomes can be obtained from a combination of using short-read Illumina data to polish assemblies generated with long-read ONT data. Draft assemblies and raw sequencing data are available for public use. We encourage use and reuse of these data for assembly benchmarking and other analyses.

Project description:Irrigation water is a common source of contamination that carries plant and foodborne human pathogens and provides a niche for proliferation and survival of microbes in agricultural settings. Bacterial communities and their functions in irrigation water were investigated by analyzing samples from wetland taro farms on Oahu, Hawaii using different DNA sequencing platforms. Irrigation water samples (stream, spring, and storage tank water) were collected from North, East, and West sides of Oahu and subjected to high quality DNA isolation, library preparation and sequencing of the V3-V4 region, full length 16S rRNA, and shotgun metagenome sequencing using Illumina iSeq100, Oxford Nanopore MinION and Illumina NovaSeq, respectively. Illumina reads provided the most comprehensive taxonomic classification at the phylum level where Proteobacteria was identified as the most abundant phylum in the stream source and associated water samples from wetland taro fields. Cyanobacteria was also a dominant phylum in samples from tank and spring water, whereas Bacteroidetes were most abundant in wetland taro fields irrigated with spring water. However, over 50% of the valid short amplicon reads remained unclassified and inconclusive at the species level. In contrast, Oxford Nanopore MinION was a better choice for microbe classification at the genus and species levels as indicated by samples sequenced for full length 16S rRNA. No reliable taxonomic classification results were obtained while using shotgun metagenome data. In functional analyzes, only 12% of the genes were shared by two consortia and 95 antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) were detected with variable relative abundance. Full descriptions of microbial communities and their functions are essential for the development of better water management strategies aimed to produce safer fresh produce and to protect plant, animal, human and environmental health. Quantitative comparisons illustrated the importance of selecting the appropriate analytical method depending on the level of taxonomic delineation sought in each microbiome.

Project description:The Indian peafowl (Pavo cristanus) is native to South Asia and is the national bird of India. Here we present a draft genome sequence of the male blue peacock using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore technology (ONT). ONT sequencing gave ∼2.3-fold sequencing coverage, whereas Illumina generated 150-base pair paired-end sequence data at 284.6-fold coverage from 5 libraries. Subsequently, we generated a 0.915-gigabase pair de novo assembly of the peacock genome with a scaffold N50 of 0.23 megabase pairs (Mb). We predict that the peacock genome contains 23,153 protein-coding genes and 75.3 Mb (7.33%) of repetitive sequences. We report a high-quality assembly of the peacock genome using a hybrid approach of sequences generated by both Illumina and ONT. The long-read chemistry generated by ONT was useful for addressing challenges related to de novo assembly, particularly at regions containing repetitive sequences spanning longer than the read length, and which could not be resolved with only short-read-based assembly. Contig assembly of Illumina short reads gave an N50 of 1,639 bases, whereas with ONT, the N50 increased by >9-fold to 14,749 bases. The initial contig assembly based on Illumina sequencing reads alone gave 685,241 contigs. Further scaffolding on assembled contigs using both Illumina and ONT sequencing reads resulted in a final assembly of 15,025 super-scaffolds, with an N50 of ∼0.23 Mb. Ninety-five percent of proteins predicted by homology matched with those in a public repository, verifying the completeness of our assembly. Like other phylogenetic studies of avian conserved genes, we found P. cristatus to be most closely related to Gallus gallus, followed by Meleagris gallopavo and Anas platyrhynchos. Compared with the recently published peacock genome assembly, the current, superior, hybrid assembly has greater sequencing depth, fewer non-ATGC sequences, and fewer scaffolds.

Project description:BACKGROUND:We benchmarked the hybrid assembly approaches of MaSuRCA, SPAdes, and Unicycler for bacterial pathogens using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore sequencing by determining genome completeness and accuracy, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), virulence potential, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), phylogeny, and pan genome. Ten bacterial species (10 strains) were tested for simulated reads of both mediocre- and low-quality, whereas 11 bacterial species (12 strains) were tested for real reads. RESULTS:Unicycler performed the best for achieving contiguous genomes, closely followed by MaSuRCA, while all SPAdes assemblies were incomplete. MaSuRCA was less tolerant of low-quality long reads than SPAdes and Unicycler. The hybrid assemblies of five antimicrobial-resistant strains with simulated reads provided consistent AMR genotypes with the reference genomes. The MaSuRCA assembly of Staphylococcus aureus with real reads contained msr(A) and tet(K), while the reference genome and SPAdes and Unicycler assemblies harbored blaZ. The AMR genotypes of the reference genomes and hybrid assemblies were consistent for the other five antimicrobial-resistant strains with real reads. The numbers of virulence genes in all hybrid assemblies were similar to those of the reference genomes, irrespective of simulated or real reads. Only one exception existed that the reference genome and hybrid assemblies of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with mediocre-quality long reads carried 241 virulence genes, whereas 184 virulence genes were identified in the hybrid assemblies of low-quality long reads. The MaSuRCA assemblies of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium with mediocre-quality long reads contained 126 and 118 virulence genes, respectively, while 110 and 107 virulence genes were detected in their MaSuRCA assemblies of low-quality long reads, respectively. All approaches performed well in our MLST and phylogenetic analyses. The pan genomes of the hybrid assemblies of S. Typhimurium with mediocre-quality long reads were similar to that of the reference genome, while SPAdes and Unicycler were more tolerant of low-quality long reads than MaSuRCA for the pan-genome analysis. All approaches functioned well in the pan-genome analysis of Campylobacter jejuni with real reads. CONCLUSIONS:Our research demonstrates the hybrid assembly pipeline of Unicycler as a superior approach for genomic analyses of bacterial pathogens using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore sequencing.

Project description:The revolution of genome sequencing is continuing after the successful second-generation sequencing (SGS) technology. The third-generation sequencing (TGS) technology, led by Pacific Biosciences (PacBio), is progressing rapidly, moving from a technology once only capable of providing data for small genome analysis, or for performing targeted screening, to one that promises high quality de novo assembly and structural variation detection for human-sized genomes. In 2014, the MinION, the first commercial sequencer using nanopore technology, was released by Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). MinION identifies DNA bases by measuring the changes in electrical conductivity generated as DNA strands pass through a biological pore. Its portability, affordability, and speed in data production makes it suitable for real-time applications, the release of the long read sequencer MinION has thus generated much excitement and interest in the genomics community. While de novo genome assemblies can be cheaply produced from SGS data, assembly continuity is often relatively poor, due to the limited ability of short reads to handle long repeats. Assembly quality can be greatly improved by using TGS long reads, since repetitive regions can be easily expanded into using longer sequencing lengths, despite having higher error rates at the base level. The potential of nanopore sequencing has been demonstrated by various studies in genome surveillance at locations where rapid and reliable sequencing is needed, but where resources are limited.
