Abstract

The Iberian ribbed newt ( Pleurodeles waltl ) constitutes a central model for probing the basis of vertebrate regeneration. Here, we present the sequencing and chromosome-scale assembly of the 20.3Gb P. waltl genome, which exhibits the highest level of contiguity and completeness among giant genome assemblies. We uncover that DNA transposable elements are the major contributors to its expansion, with hAT transposons comprising a large portion of repeats. Several hATs are actively transcribed and differentially expressed during adult P. waltl limb regeneration, along with domesticated hAT transposons of the ZBED transcription factor family. Despite its size, syntenic relationships are conserved. As an example, we show the high degree of conservation of the regeneration-associated Tig1 locus with several neighbouring genes. Together, the P. waltl genome provides a fundamental resource for the study of regenerative, developmental and evolutionary principles.

  • The Spanish ribbed newt, Pleurodeles waltl, has a high-quality de novo transcriptome and more recently a high-quality genome but no available common SNPs VCF file.

    “The Spanish ribbed newt, Pleurodeles waltl, is ar reemerging regenerative model organism, which has a high-quality de novo transcriptome (Matsunami et al, 2019) and more recently a high-quality genome (Brown et al, 2022, Preprint) but no available common SNPs VCF file.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
