title: Slindneri_SZ1623-FG-A_Fastp-KAT
design: Schizosaccharomyces lindneri sp. nov., cells were collected for DNA extraction during the logarithmic phase. Genomic DNA was extracted using the MasterPure Yeast DNA Purification Kit (Epicentre) following a modified manufacturer's protocol. The Illumina sequencing library was prepared using the home-made Tn5 transposase. Pair-end sequencing was performed on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 System. The raw read data generated by the sequencer were firstly processed using fastp (v0.2.0, https://github.com/OpenGene/fastp) for low-quality bases trimming with the following parameter: --length_required 70. Then read pairs containing low-frequency kmers were removed using KAT (V2.4.2, https://github.com/TGAC/KAT), and the remaining read data were uploaded. These read data were used for removing erroneous or contaminated contigs in the raw draft genome assembly.
