Nosema ceranae genome sequence
WGS sequencing
The <a href="http://www.ars.usda.gov/main/site_main.htm?modecode=12-75-05-00">USDA-ARS Bee Research Laboratory</a> in collaboration with <a href="http://454.com">Roche Applied Sciences</a> sequenced the <i>Nosema ceranae</i> strain BRL01 genome at 25X coverage using whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing. They generated 5465 contigs some of which are annotated.   <i>Nosema ceranae</i> spores were collected from infected adult honey bees maintained at the USDA-ARS Bee Research Laboratory, Beltsville, MD, USA.
