title: Whole genome sequencing of Escherichia coli BPI8
design: Genomic DNA was extracted from Luria Bertani cultures of E. coli BPI8 using the NucleoSpin Soil Mini Kit (Macherey-Nagel) according to the manufacturers instructions. DNA quality was assessed using 1% agarose gel electrophoresis. Library preparation was performed using the NEBNext Ultra II DNA Library Prep Kit (NEB, USA), and sequencing was carried out on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform (2 150 bp), which generated approximately 1 Gb of data from a fraction of a flow cell.
