Abstract:
We present the chromosome level assembly of strain JU4118, an inbred line of Caenorhabditis species #65. This species is a wild isolate that was sampled in Da Lat, Vietnam by Marie-Anne Félix's lab in December 2019. This strain has a genome size of 126.4Mb, with a GC content of 37.96%. By assembling and annotating its genome, we aim to expand future evolutionary studies on the Caenorhabditis genus.
