A High-Quality Genome Assembly from Short and Long Reads for the Non-biting Midge Chironomus riparius (Diptera)

A High-Quality Genome Assembly from Short and Long Reads for the Non-biting Midge Chironomus riparius (Diptera)

Chironomus riparius is of great importance as a study species in various fields like ecotoxicology, molecular genetics, developmental biology and ecology. However, only a fragmented draft genome exists to date, hindering the recent rush of population genomic studies in this species. Making use of 50...
