Poeciliia latipinna (Sailfin molly) Sequence Assembly Release Notes
 The Sailfin molly DNA for shotgun sequencing is derived from an adult female (Poecilia latipinna; fish id # Pla-1442-1.1) within the laboratory of Dr. Manfred Schartl at the Biocenter of the ... University of Wuerzburg, Germany. Total sequence genome input coverage on the Illumina HiSeq instrument was 
34x (20x fragments, and 14x 3kb). 
 The combined sequence reads were assembled into contigs by Richa Agarwala by aligning the reads to the Poecilia formosa draft assembly. The P. latipinna assembly was further improved with the external scaffolding tool SSPACE (Boetzer 2010), and with a custom gap filling tool similar to IMAGE (Tsai 2010). This 1.0 version has been cleaned of contaminating contigs, and contigs 200bp and less were removed. The assembly is made up of a total of 17,988 scaffolds (including single contig scaffolds) with an N50 scaffold length of 250Mb (N50 contig length was 33kb). The assembly spans 815Mb. 
 This work was supported by NIH grant R24 RR032658-01 to Dr. Warren, Washington University School of Medicine.
