For each genomic DNA sample, a 10 kb SMRTbell library was constructed according to manufacturer’s instructions (PacBio, Menlo Park, CA, USA). Each sample was first sheared and treated with Exo VII, followed by the DNA damage repair and end-repair steps. Following end-repair, barcoded adapters are ligated to the sample. Samples were then pooled and underwent Exo III and VII treatments, followed by two 0.45X AMPure PB bead purification rounds. The libraries were sequenced using a PacBio RSII instrument and P6C4 chemistry (PacBio, CA, USA).

Whole-genome long sequence data were obtained using the single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing method with the PacBio RSII instrument. Long-insert sequence libraries (SMRTbell-10kb) were prepared from 20 μg of paired tumor and non-cancerous tissue DNA from HX25, enriched to >4 kb using BluePippin, loaded on SMRT Cell v3, and sequenced with P4C2 chemistry according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
The sequence reads (tumor: 15.64 average depth, 1783 bp average mapped read length, and 85.35% mapped accuracy; non-cancerous: 11.36 average depth, 4082 bp average mapped read length, and 84.99% mapped accuracy) were mapped using BLASR41 (link). Long reads that included at least two HBV integration sites or included both an integration site and a breakpoint of structural rearrangement of HBV genome sequences were selected. Each integration site or breakpoint in the read was validated by the detection of integration or rearrangement of HBV using the WGS short reads described above.

Details regarding the individual Zymoseptoria isolates can be found in Table 1. For genomic data we used the three Z. tritici isolates IPO323 (reference), Zt05 and Zt10, one Z. ardabiliae isolate (Za17), one Z. brevis isolate (Zb87), one Z. passerinii isolate (Zpa63), and the Z. pseudotritici isolate (Zp13). For transcriptomic and epigenomic data we used Z. tritici Zt09 (IPO323 ΔChr18) a derivate of the reference isolate IPO323 deleted with the chromosome 18 [31 (link)].
Long read assemblies of the Z. tritici isolates Zt05 and Zt10 were described and published previously [30 ]. For DNA extraction and long read sequencing cultures of Z. pseudotritici, Z. ardabiliae, Z. brevis and Z. passerinii were maintained in liquid YMS medium (4 g/L yeast extract, 4 g/L malt extract, 4 g/L sucrose) at 200 rpm and 18 °C. DNA extraction was conducted as previously described [26 (link)]. PacBio SMRTbell libraries were prepared using DNA extracted from single cells based on a CTAB extraction protocol [30 , 46 (link)]. The libraries were size selected with an 8-kb cutoff on a BluePippin system (Sage Science).
After selection, the average fragment length was 15 kb. Sequencing of the isolates Za17, Zb87, and Zp13 was run on a PacBio RS II instrument at the Functional Genomics Center, Zurich, Switzerland. Sequencing of the Zpa63 isolate was performed at the Max Planck-Genome-Centre, Cologne, Germany.

Nineteen Propionibacterium freudenreichii samples were sequenced with the Pacific Biosciences RS II Instrument using either P4/C2 or P5/C3 chemistries (listed in Table 2). Two SMRT cells were used for each sample. Movie times varied from 120 to 240 min. The total number of obtained bases and subreads and their mean and N50 lengths are listed in Table 2. The Hierarchical Genome Assembly Process (HGAP) V3 implemented in the SMRT Analysis package (v.2.3.0) was used to generate de novo genome assemblies with default parameters, excluding the genome size estimate parameter which was set to 3,000,000 bp. Obtained circular sequences were polished using SMRT Analysis RS Resequencing protocol and the Quiver consensus algorithm. Chromosomal genome sequences were set to begin from the chromosomal replication initiator protein (dnaA). The sequences were then annotated with Prodigal v. 2.6.2. All sequences were deposited in the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA). Complete genome, phage and plasmid sequence sizes, sequencing coverages, GC percentages, number of predicted genes and ENA accession numbers are listed in Table 1. Base modifications and motifs were detected using RS Modification and Motif analysis protocol (SMRT Analysis package v.2.3.0).

Multidrug-Resistant Pathogen Genome Sequencing

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A detailed description of molecular methods is provided in the Supplemental Appendix. In brief; nineteen isolates, including 14 from 12 case-patients, two environmental isolates, and three historical specimens, underwent short- read sequencing using a MiSeq (Illumina, San Diego, CA). A subset of six isolates was selected for long-read sequencing on a RSII instrument (Pacific Biosciences, Menlo Park, CA). Clean short-reads were assembled de novo into contigs using SPAdes 3.9.0 [20 (link)]. Acquired antimicrobial resistance (AR) genes were detected using SSTAR [21 ]and the ResFinder database [22 (link)].
PacBio reads were assembled using HGAP and subsequently polished with Quiver [23 (link)]. Known resistance mechanisms were determined as described for Illumina contigs. Clean Illumina reads from all IncA/C2 plasmid replicon-containing isolates were mapped to the core plasmid genome using lyve-SET1.1.4f [24 ]. Raw sequencing reads, PacBio assemblies, and drug susceptibility data were placed under NCBI BioProject PRJNA302185.

Synthetic Mixture of E. coli Strains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Three strains of E. coli, BAA-2196 O26:H11, BAA-2215 O103:H11, and BAA-2440 O111, were sequenced separately using a Pacific Biosciences RSII instrument (see Online Methods section entitled Three E. coli strains for synthetic mixture). The synthetic, multi-strain mixture was created by combining a single SMRT cell from each of these separate sequencing runs (Supplementary Table 2). All reads were combined prior to binning and assembly without knowledge of their strain of origin. Strain chimerism was assessed by mapping strain labels back to assembled reads after assembly. In order to prevent sequencing errors from corrupting the IPD signatures for longer methylation motifs, we conducted an error-correction step by aligning the raw reads from each strain to the E. coli K12 MG1655 reference sequence (RefSeq accession NC_000913.3) prior to constructing read-level methylation scores for each motif.

DNA of isolate Izh-4 was submitted to WGS using SMRT sequencing on the Pacific BioScience Technology platform. The sequencing service was provided by the core facility located at the Norwegian Sequencing Centre (NSC) (www.sequencing.uio.no). DNA was extracted from 64 × 109 cells using a Maxwell® 16 and a Maxwell LEV Blood DNA kit (Promega, Germany). The 20 kb library preparation protocol was employed. Size selection of the final library was performed using 0.4x Amp beads. The library was sequenced on a Pacific Biosciences RS II instrument using P6-C4 chemistry with 360 min movie time, two SMRT cells were used for sequencing due to poor loading. De novo assembly was performed using hierarchical genome assembly process (HGAP v3, Pacific Biosciences, SMRT Analysis Software v2.3.0) with default parameters (expected genome size 1.6 Mb, minimum target coverage 15X). RS_Resequencing.1 software (SMRT Analysis version v2.3.0) was used to map SMRT reads back to sequences in order to correct contigs after assembly clean-up. PacBio contigs were polished by mapping Illumina pair-end reads using Pilon v1.22.
