Camelus dromedarius (Arabian camel) genome, mCamDro1, sequence data

The Arabian camel (Camelus dromedarius ) is a one-humped camel species found in the Middle East and North Africa. It is remarkable for its adaptations to arid environments and has been integral to human societies in these regions. This sample (mCamDro1) is from a female bred at Mr. Shabat bin Saqar Al-Muraikhi camel breeding farm, in Qatar. The sample was part of a trio (offspring mCamDro1, father mCamDro2 and mother mCamDro3). These samples were collected and coordinated by Farooq Omar Al-Ajli (Katara Biodiversity Genomes Program), to create trio-based high-quality assemblies of the maternal and paternal haplotypes for the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP) and Qatar Biodiversity Genomes Project (QBGP). Sequencing was done at the Vertebrate Genomes Lab (VGL) at Rockefeller University, led by Olivier Fedrigo and Erich D. Jarvis. Genome assembly was conducted at Sidra Medicine by Farooq Omar Al-Ajli and Khalid A. Fakhro in collaboration with VGL.

阿拉伯骆驼（Camelus dromedarius）是分布于中东与北非的单峰驼物种。该物种以其对干旱环境的卓越适应性而著称，且在上述地区的人类社会中始终发挥着不可或缺的核心作用。本次研究的样本（mCamDro1）取自卡塔尔沙巴特·本·萨卡尔·阿尔-穆赖希（Shabat bin Saqar Al-Muraikhi）先生的骆驼繁育场所繁育的一头雌性个体。该样本为一个家系 trio（包含子代mCamDro1、父本mCamDro2与母本mCamDro3）的组成部分。这些样本由隶属于卡塔拉生物多样性基因组计划（Katara Biodiversity Genomes Program）的法鲁克·奥马尔·阿尔-阿杰利（Farooq Omar Al-Ajli）协调采集，旨在为脊椎动物基因组计划（Vertebrate Genomes Project, VGP）与卡塔尔生物多样性基因组计划（Qatar Biodiversity Genomes Project, QBGP）构建基于家系 trio的高质量母本与父本单倍型组装结果。测序工作由洛克菲勒大学脊椎基因组实验室（Vertebrate Genomes Lab, VGL）完成，由奥利维耶·费德里戈（Olivier Fedrigo）与埃里希·D·贾维斯（Erich D. Jarvis）主导。基因组组装工作由西德拉医学中心（Sidra Medicine）的法鲁克·奥马尔·阿尔-阿杰利与哈立德·A·法赫罗（Khalid A. Fakhro）联合VGL合作完成。
