Pig-tailed Macaque reference genome and diversity panel. Macaca nemestrina isolate:M95218

A high quality draft sequence of the reference genome will be assembled from a single pig-tailed macaque, using read data produced by the Illumina platform. In addition to the deep genome sequence coverage for the reference animal, BCM-HGSC will generate whole genome sequences from additional individuals in order to identify DNA sequence variation for this species.
