Ciconia boyciana Genome sequencing and assembly. Ciconia boyciana

We presented the first chromosome-scale genome for the oriental stork with high quality, contiguity, and accuracy. The assembled genome size was 1.24 Gb with a scaffold N50 of 103 Mb, and 1.23 Gb contigs (99.32%) were anchored to 37 chromosomes.

本研究首次报道了兼具高质控水平、高连续性与高准确性的东方鹳（oriental stork）染色体级参考基因组。该组装基因组的总长度为1.24 Gb，其支架N50（scaffold N50）达103 Mb，其中1.23 Gb的重叠群（contig，占比99.32%）被锚定至37条染色体上。
