Whole-genome libraries were prepared from approximately 100 ng WGA DNA using NEBNext Ultra II FS Kit following the protocol for inputs ≤100 ng (New England BioLabs, Ipswich, Massachusetts, USA), with the following modifications: the NEBNext Adaptor for Illumina was replaced with the Universal iTru adapter [13 (link)]. The libraries were amplified with iTru i5 and i7 primers [13 (link)] at a the final concentration of 0.5 μM, purified using 1x Sera-Mag Select Beads (Cytiva, Amersham, Little Chalfont, United Kingdom), and resuspended in a final volume of 33 μL of 0.1× TE buffer.
