Migratory Locust Chromosome-Level Genome and Resequencing Data

A high-quality chromosome-level reference genome for the migratory locust, accompanied by the largest resequencing dataset to date. The dataset includes genome-wide maps of SNPs and transposable element insertion polymorphisms. It was authored by Xuanzhao Li and last updated on April 24, 2026.

Use Cases

• Comparative genomics analysis based on the chromosome-level reference genome
• Population genetics studies based on the genome-wide SNP maps
• Investigating genome evolution and plasticity based on transposable element insertion polymorphisms
• Serving as a reference for genomic studies of other orthopteran species

Strengths

• Provides a high-quality chromosome-level reference genome, a detailed assembly type
• Includes the largest resequencing dataset to date for the species, as stated in the description
• Contains genome-wide maps for both SNPs and transposable element polymorphisms

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
