Abstract:
The draft genome data for Cimex hemipterus obtained through Illumina HiSeq sequencing were presented. The raw genomic data was deposited in GenBank under BioProject (PRJNA722579) with the BioSample accession number SAMN18780126. Software, including FLASH, SPADES, and QUAST, were used to merge, assemble, and qualify the raw dataset. The assembled genome was available in the Figshare repository. The assembled genomic data was compared to C. hemipterus data obtained using 454 Roche shotgun sequencing (BioProject, PRJNA308532), downloaded from NCBI. The draft genome data from this work demonstrated larger data volumes and an updated assembly of the C. hemipterus genome with better scaffolding compared to genome data obtained from 454 Roche shotgun sequencing.
