Nanopore adaptive sampling as an alternative to hybrid enrichment in phylogenomics: A test using weevils

Sunday, November 5, 2023
2:18 PM – 2:30 PM ET
Location: Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, Chesapeake J-K
In-Person
Adaptive sampling is a method of software-controlled enrichment sequencing unique to Nanopore platforms. We generated genomic resourcesusing adaptive sampling tools from 12 species of flower-associated weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), seeking to explore new methodologies for generating and analyzing phylogenomic data. In this talk, I will demonstrate how Nanopore adaptive sampling data can be used for studies of speciation, and how they can significantly improve phylogenomic datasets, e.g., by combining them with data generated using other technologies, such as target enrichment sequencing, or facilitating the inclusion of samples that are only accessible through fieldwork or visiting other institutions.
