Abstract

The implementation of a new genomic assembly pipeline named only the best [Genome Assembly Tools] (otb) has effectively addressed various challenges associated with data management during the development and storage of genome assemblies. otb, which incorporates a comprehensive pipeline involving a setup layer, quality checks, templating, and the integration of Nextflow and Singularity. The primary objective of otb is to streamline the process of creating a HiFi/HiC genome, aiming to minimize the manual intervention required in the genome assembly process. The Two-lined spittlebug, (Prosapia bicincta, Hemiptera: Cercopidae), a true bug insect herbivore, serves as a practical test case for evaluating otb. The two-lined spittlebug is both a crucial agricultural pest and a genomically understudied insect belonging to the order Hemiptera. This insect is a significant threat to grasslands and pastures, leading to plant wilting and phytotoxemia when infested. Its presence in tropical and subtropical regions around the world poses a long-term threat to the composition of plant communities in grassland landscapes, impacting rangelands, and posing a substantial risk to cattle production.
