Whole-genome sequence of Formica ant: worker ant
Genomic DNA was extracted using the Qiagen DNEasy Blood and Tissue extraction kit; The genomic DNA was extracted from the head and thorax of the worker ant; Genomic DNA was prepared for libaries using the low-volume Illumina Nextera protocol of Baym et al. (2015, PLoS ONE) as modified by Henderson & Brelsford (2020, BMC Evol. Biol.) ; Libraries were sequenced by the UC Berkeley sequencing core, using the HiSeq 4000 platform with 150 bp pair-end reads.
