Cataglyphis hispanica isolate:Lineage 1 Genome sequencing
We generated high-quality chromosome-level genome assemblies for two hybridogenetic lineages of the Iberian ant Cataglyphis hispanica using Oxford Nanopore long reads, Illumina short reads, and proximity ligation (Hi-C). These new reference genomes pave the way for exploring the genetic mechanisms underlying the remarkable thermal tolerance of Catalgpyhis desert ants.
