Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Both L. monocytogenes strains were cultivated under aerobic conditions at 37°C in brain heart infusion broth (BHI, Merck; with 125 rpm shaking) and harvested by centrifugation. The resulting pellet was used for DNA isolation using the QIAGEN genomic-tip columns and buffers (QIAGEN), in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer. Genome sequencing was performed using an Illumina GAII genome analyzer at the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna, Austria. Sequencing was performed using paired-end sequencing technology and 101 bp read-length using Illumina standard protocols. Ten million reads were used for a de novo assembly using SeqManNGen (DNASTAR). For strain QOC1, the assembly of sequenced data resulted in generation of 17 contigs (>500 bp) for which there was an average coverage of 310×, while for strain QOC2, assembly of the reads resulted in 13 contigs (>500 bp), for which the average coverage was 330×. For ordering, the contigs were aligned to the L. monocytogenes EGDe genome using the “move contigs” option in MAUVE [22] (link). Some of the remaining gaps could be closed by PCR and Sanger sequencing - resulting in seven and four contigs in the final assembly for strain QOC1 and QOC2, respectively.

N. benthamiana and P. palmivora messenger RNAs (mRNAs) were purified using Poly(A) selection from the total RNA sample and then fragmented. cDNA library preparation was performed with the TruSeq® RNA Sample Preparation Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. cDNA sequencing of the 13 samples (MZ, infected N. benthamiana root samples and uninfected N. benthamiana plants) was performed in four lanes of Illumina NextSeq 2500 in a 100 paired-end mode. Samples were de-multiplexed and analysed further.
mRNAs from additional samples of a short leaf time course (P. palmivora mycelium, N. benthamiana leaves 2 days after inoculation (dai) and N. benthamiana leaves 3 dai) were purified using Poly(A) selection from the total RNA sample. cDNA libraries were prepared using the NEBNext® RNA library preparation kit (New England Biolabs, Hitchin, UK) according to the manufacturer’s protocol and sequenced on an Illumina GAII Genome Analyzer in a 76 paired-end mode in three separate lanes. Reads obtained from these three samples were used for P. palmivora de novo transcriptome assembly only. The raw fastq data are accessible at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/ with accession number SRP096022.

Gene expression analysis was conducted on fresh milk samples collected on days 4, 15, 30, and 60 postpartum by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Messenger RNA was isolated and purified using an RNA-Seq sample preparation kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). The fragments were purified and sequenced at the UC Davis Genome Center DNA Technologies Core Facility using the Illumina Genome Analyzer (GAII) and Illumina HiSeq 2000. Sequence reads were assembled and analyzed in RNA-Seq. Expression analysis was performed with the CLC Genomics Workbench 6.0 (CLC Bio, Aarhus, Denmark). Human genome, GRCh37.69 (ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/release-69/genbank/homo_sapiens/), was utilized as the reference genome for the assembly. Data were normalized by calculating the “reads per kilobase per million mapped reads” (RPKM)16 (link) for each gene and annotated with ENSEMBL human genome assembly (55203 unique genes).

Four dog populations were collected for this study: 1) Tibetan dogs living in Tibet and Qinghai province at elevations of about 3,500 m; 2) population of indigenous dogs gathered from other provinces of China with elevations lower than 2,000 m; and 3) a population of modern dog breeds (DB) mixed by Chow Chow, Rottweiler, Chihuahua, and Saint Bernard. The genomic DNA was extracted using the Phenol/Chloroform method from peripheral venous blood. For each population, genomic DNA for ten individuals was pooled together equally. Note that 3 chow chows, 3 Rottweilers, 3 Chihuahuas, and 1 Saint Bernard were mixed as one population to represent modern DB. The Illumina Genome Analyzer GAII was used to generate paired-end reads for each population pool according to standard protocols specified by the manufacturer. The read length of raw sequence data was shown on table 1.
