De novo genome assemblies are common tools for examining novel biological phenomena in non-model organisms. Here, we present a protocol for preparing Drosophila genomic DNA to create chromosome-level de novo genome assemblies. We describe steps for high-molecular-weight DNA preparation with phenol or Genomic-tips, quality control, long-read nanopore sequencing, short-read DNA library preparation, and sequencing. We then detail procedures of genome assembly, annotation, and assessment that can be used for downstream comparison and functional analysis.
