Long-reads are revolutionizing 20 years of insect genome sequencing

TL;DR: The authors analyzed the most-contiguous assembly for each species and provided a "state of the field" perspective, emphasizing taxonomic representation, assembly quality, gene completeness, and sequencing technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI

A global phylogeny of butterflies reveals their evolutionary history, ancestral hosts and biogeographic origins

Akito Y. Kawahara, +87 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors sequenced 391 genes from nearly 2,300 butterfly species, sampled from 90 countries and 28 specimen collections, to reconstruct a new phylogenomic tree of butterflies representing 92% of all genera.

Repetitive elements in the era of biodiversity genomics: insights from 600+ insect genomes

TL;DR: The findings suggest this RE-annotation bottleneck, driven largely by uneven taxonomic representation in RE reference databases, is worsening and the tremendous opportunity and need for the field of biodiversity genomics to embrace REs is highlighted and collective steps for making progress are suggested.
