COMMENT
This Wikel tick colony was established in 1996 using field
collected ticks from New York, Oklahoma and a Lyme Disease endemic
area of Connecticut. This colony has been continuously in-bred
since establishment and has not been supplemented with field
collected material. The colony is known to be a competent vector
of various Borrelia and Babesia isolates. Genomic DNA was prepared
from embryonated eggs.
The Ixodes scapularis Genome Project (IGP) is a community-based
effort initiated in early 2004 to sequence the I. scapularis
genome. The IGP is funded by the National Institute of Allergy and
Infectious Diseases (NIAID)/National Institute of Health as part of
the NIAID-funded Microbial Sequencing Centers (MSCs) at The J.
Craig Venter Institute (http://www.jcvi.org) and The Broad
Institute (http://www.broad.mit.edu/). The genome sequencing was
performed at both MSCs and the assembly at JCVI. The sum of all
reads equals 6X based on an estimated genome size of 2.1 Gbp, while
the coverage on assembled contigs is 3.8X. The scaffolds are
comprised of 570637 contigs; the other 570958 contigs in the 01
version of this project represent degenerate contigs that were not
incorporated into scaffolds. The annotation for this assembly will
be produced jointly by the MSCs and VectorBase
(http://www.vectorbase.org). Data release and use follow NIAID
guidelines
(http://www.niaid.nih.gov/dmid/genomes/mscs/data_release.htm).
VectorBase (www.vectorbase.org), a NIAID Bioinformatics Resource
Center, is responsible for the long-term curation of the assembled
genome sequence and its annotation. For more information, contact
info@vectorbase.org.
Assembly name: JCVI_ISG_i3_1.0
Coverage: 3.8x on assembled contigs; 6x based on an estimated
genome size of 2.1 Gbp
Annotation was added to the scaffolds in December 2008.
