Whole genome of Rhodococcus imtechensis RKJ300 was sequenced by Illumina-HiSeq 1000 paired end technology. A total of 30,464,548 paired end reads of 101 bp length were generated as a result of sequencing. We have used NGS QC Toolkit v2.1 to filter high-quality Illumina data (HQ cut off read length for HQ=70%, cutoff quality score=20) and removal of Vector/Adaptor contaminated reads.
We obtained 2,753,155 single end reads and 22,040,838 high-quality, vector-filtered paired end reads after raw data filtering.
We have only used 22,040,838 paired end reads,having ~267X coverage, for genome assembly, discussed in the genome annocement manuscript.
