Historically the consequences of ion over- or undersupply have been - for good reasons -largely studied in the context of long-term adaptation to specific soil types. However, since all ionic nutrients and toxic…

Sequencing on the cheap: ants, cats, primates, de novo genomes, methylation, and commensals by 1 person with $1000   Abstract Using a nanopore sequencer, I generated a novel genome from scratch for the carpenter ant, along with mitogenome and commensal wolbachia genomes with the 2nd best assembly on NCBI. I will present…
