Abstract Background We wished to produce a single reference gene set for honey bee Apis mellifera . Our motivation was twofold. First we wished to obtain an improved set of gene models with increased coverage of known genes while maintaining gene model quality. Second we wished to provide a single official gene list that the research community could further utilize for consistent and comparable analyses and functional annotation. Results We created a consensus gene set for honey bee Apis mellifera using GLEAN a new algorithm that uses latent class analysis to automatically combine disparate gene prediction evidence in the absence of known genes. The consensus gene models had increased representation of honey bee genes without sacrificing quality compared .
