Polistes Dominula Genome Assembly and Annotation Supplementary Tables

Four supplementary tables provide comparative genomic metrics for the Polistes dominula wasp and other vespids. The tables, authored by Christopher Wyatt and last updated in May 2026, report BUSCO completeness, assembly statistics, repeat content, and annotation statistics. The dataset is a 2.8 KB ZIP file containing these tabular results.

Use Cases

• Benchmark genome assembly quality based on BUSCO completeness scores for Hymenoptera.
• Compare structural genome features like assembly statistics and repeat content across vespid species.
• Evaluate gene annotation quality based on per-gene model metrics such as exon and CDS length.

Strengths

• Includes four distinct tables covering key genomic assessment metrics: BUSCO, assembly, repeats, and annotation.
• Provides comparative data for multiple vespid genomes, allowing for cross-species analysis.
• Uses standard bioinformatics tools (BUSCO, QUAST, RepeatMasker, AGAT) for consistent metric generation.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The description references 'TODO: N other vespid assemblies', indicating some planned comparator data may be incomplete.
