Pure green sweat bee (Augochlora pura)
Augochlora pura does not have a common name, but about it has been written that '...it does not seem to need one with such a musical scientific designation that means 'pure golden green'.' Read more about pure green sweat bees on iNaturalist.org.

Chromosome-length genome assembly
Download the APUR_genome_v2.1.0.fasta.gz file containing the chromosome-length (2n=22) assembly of the pure green sweat bee genome. All modifications with respect to the draft (see below) are annotated in the APUR_genome_v2.1.0.assembly file. Some basic stats associated with the new reference, APUR_genome_v2.1.0, are listed below. The full data release can be explored here.
Contig length (bp) | Number of contigs | Contig N50 (bp) | Longest contig (bp) |
|---|---|---|---|
303,904,407 | 13,018 | 175,533 | 1,475,744 |
Scaffold length (bp) | Number of scaffolds | Scaffold N50 (bp) | Longest scaffold (bp) |
|---|---|---|---|
304,429,207 | 9,002 | 26,696,440 | 41,380,077 |
Draft
The chromosome-length genome assembly is based on the draft assembly APUR_genome_v1.0, credited below.
This genome assembly was created in collaboration with the Kocher Lab at Princeton University. The draft was assembled with Supernova assembler using 10x Genomics linked-read libraries. For details see https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.04.14.439731v1..
Method
3D Assembly was performed using 3D-DNA pipeline (Dudchenko et al., Science, 2017). The genome was reviewed using Juicebox Assembly Tools (Dudchenko et al., bioRxiv, 2018). See Methods for more information.
Hi-C sample
The head and thorax sample for in situ Hi-C preparation was donated by a male individual named COI-eq ID: N/A, Legacy ID: APUR003, 4-letter alias: APUR, alt: Apo0008, and obtained from Kocher Lab, Princeton University.
Hi-C Contact maps
Hi-C data was aligned to the draft reference using Juicer (Durand, Shamim et al., Cell Systems, 2016), and contact maps visualizing the alignments with respect to the draft and the new reference were built using 3D-DNA (Dudchenko et al., Science, 2017). The contact maps can be explored below via Juicebox.js interactive tool (Robinson et al., Cell Systems, 2018). To explore the assembly in greater detail, please download the .hic and .assembly files from the data release folder and use Juicebox Assembly Tools (Dudchenko et al., bioRxiv, 2018).
