Today we received word that the sequencing and assembly of the ninespotted lady beetle genome is now complete! It ended up costing a bit more than we expected, but the data and infromation we glean from the genome will be well worth it.
Now it's onto the next phase of the plan....look at alllllll of the data!
Richard like this.
The introduction of non-native lady beetles into North America led to the disappearance of several once-ubiquitous species including the New York State insect, the ninespotted lady beetle. Our goal is to sequence the genome of this iconic species and characterize key differences between it and its main antagonist, the introduced sevenspotted lady beetle. These data will help us understand why the ninespot declined and help facilitate our restoration, conservation and education programs.
