A reference genome for : A tiny desert-dwelling parasitoid wasp with competing sex-ratio distorters.

The tiny parasitoid wasp inhabits the Mojave Desert of the southwest United States. Populations of this tiny insect variably host up to two different sex-distorting genetic elements: (1) the endosymbiotic bacterium which induces the parthenogenetic reproduction of females, and (2) a B-chromosome, "Paternal Sex Ratio" (PSR), which converts would-be female offspring to PSR-transmitting males. We report here the genome of a -infected isofemale colony KSX58.
