Nylanderia fulva annotations OGSv1.0

The Nylanderia fulva OGSv1.0 is the Official Gene Set of genome assembly TAMU_Nfulva_1.0 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/GCF_005281655.1/). It is a merge of NCBI Nylanderia fulva Annotation Release 100 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/annotation_euk/Nylanderia_fulva/100/) and semi-automated predictions of odorant receptors.

Odorant receptor predictions were based on manual curations of ORs (McKenzie & Kronauer 2018). Curated models were aligned to the genome with a combination of GeMoMa (http://www.jstacs.de/index.php/GeMoMa), exonerate (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/about/vertebrate-genomics/software/exonerate) and BLAST. The exonerate alignment is based on a pipeline from Zhou et al 2015. Evidence from the different sources were combined with EvidenceModeler (https://evidencemodeler.github.io/). All gene models were checked for the 7tm6 domain against pfam using "pfam_scan.pl".

Odorant receptor predictions were merged with the NCBI Nylanderia fulva Annotation Release 100 using the GFF3toolkit software (https://github.com/NAL-i5K/GFF3toolkit).
