Genome assembly of Branchiostoma lanceolatum

Overview
Analysis NameGenome assembly of Branchiostoma lanceolatum
Methodillumina approach (assembled from two paired-end and 6 mate-pair libraries using SOAPdenovo and haplotypes were reconcilied using haplomerger)

The genome of the European amphioxus Branchiostoma lancealatum was generated from 150x Illumina coverage sequenced by Genoscope. In the Bl71nemr assembly, haplotypes were reconcilied using haplomerger.
This assembly spans 495.3Mb (N50: 1.29Mb) split in 10,247 scaffolds with 4% of residual gaps. Masked regions are represented with lowercase characters (soft-masking); gaps in the assembly are represented with Ns.
