Pacific Biosciences, in conjunction with their research partners, publicly released (in a BioRxiv preprint) the sequences of five complex genomes that were derived using their high-accuracy circular consensus sequencing (the HiFi method, which resequences 15-20kb SMRTbells up to 30X). The genomes include inbred models Mus musculus (house mouse) and Zea mays,(corn) and complex models Fragaria × ananassa (Strawberries) and Rana muscosa (mountain yellow-legged frog). The fifth sequence was a mock metagenomic bacterial community (ATCC MSA-1003).
Three of the libraries use the SageELF for narrow size selections at ~15KB. The BluePippin was used for one genome (beads were used to size select the metagenomic samples.
