200 bp insert size paired end libraries were constructed with Illumina DNA paired end sample preparation reagents and sequenced at the McGill University and Génome Québec Innovation Centre, both 100 bp and 150 bp reads. The 3 kbp and 10 kbp insert size libraries were prepared with the Illumina Mate Pair gDNA reagents and sequenced at the McGill University and Génome Québec Innovation Centre with 100 bp reads. All Illumina libraries were sequenced on the HiSeq 2000 using V3 chemistry. PacBio SMRT sequencing was performed on a PacBio RS II instrument (Pacific Biosciences of California Inc., Menlo Park, CA, USA) at the Norwegian Sequencing Centre (NSC, www.sequencing.uio.no/). Long insert SMRTbell template libraries were prepared at NSC according to PacBio protocols. In total, 24 SMRT-cells were sequenced using P6v2 polymerase binding and C4 sequencing kits with 120 min acquisition. Approximately 16.4 Gbp of library bases were produced.
