Hi all,
I am wondering if there are any resources out there that might provide a good good overview of genome assembly (specifically eukaryotic, 300-400 MB). No data yet exists for this, and it is very new to me.
Thanks in advance.

Look for published assembled genomes published, see the methods, supplemental data files and corresponding read deposits in SRA

De Novo Assembly of Illumina reads with Velvet (1.0.17) and read alignment with Bowtie (0.12.7)

My bad, missed Eukaryotic part.
Data access
"Raw read data are available through NCBI genome project ID 39847: fosmid PE Sanger reads (see Additional data file 2 for a complete list of accessions); SE 454 reads [SRA:SRR023307] and [SRA:SRR023517] to [SRA:SRR023533]; 200 bp PE Illumina reads [SRA:SRR018008] to [SRA:SRR018011] and 700 bp PE Illumina reads [SRA:SRR018012]. Assemblies have also been deposited at NCBI: Sanger-454-IlluminaPA [DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank:ACXQ00000000]; Sanger-454-IlluminaDA [DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank:ACYC00000000]."
