Genomic sequencing of Passer montanus
Passer montanus (adult workers) were live-trapped using sweep nets. Total genomic DNA was extracted from breast muscle tissue with the QIAamp DNA Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Germany) and a 500bp library constructed. The paired-end library was sequenced (Illumina HiSeq4000) with both directions of 150bp reads representing approximately 111coverage of the genome.
