Tamandua tetradactyla (Lesser anteater) genome, mTamTet1

Tamandua tetradactyla, or the lesser anteater, is a native species from South America. This assembly has been produced as part of the G10K-VGP project. Sequencing was conducted with Pacific long reads, Bionano optical maps, 10X Genomics libraries, and Arima Genomics HiC, and Illumina sequencing at the Max Planck Institute in Dresden led by Gene Myers group. Genome assembly was conducted by Marcela Uliano-Silva, using the VGP 1.6 pipeline. The primary haplotype was assembled to chromosomes, whereas the alternate as contigs only. Funding was raised by Gene Myers and Camila Mazzoni. The raw data and assembly are currently under a G10K-VGP publication embargo until removed from this description, following the G10K data use policy at the following URL: https://genome10k.soe.ucsc.edu/data-use-policies/
