Anolis sagrei (brown anole lizard) genome, rAnoSag3, sequence data

The brown anole lizard (Anolis sagrei) is a species of lizard in the family Dactyloidae. The species is native to Cuba and the Bahamas. It has been widely introduced elsewhere, via the importation and exportation of plants where the anole would lay eggs in the soil of the pots, and is now found in Florida and as far north in the United States as southern Georgia, Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Hawaii, and Southern California. It has also been introduced to other Caribbean islands, Mexico, and Taiwan (from Wikipedia entry). This sample of a female individual (rAnoSag3) found in Palm Coast, Florida is part of a trio assembly (offspring rAnoSag1, father rAnoSag2). The samples were procured by Tonia Schwartz and coordinated by Anne Bronikowski to generate a high-quality reference genome for the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP). Sequencing and genome assembly were conducted at the Vertebrate Genome Lab (VGL) at the Rockefeller University, led by Erich D. Jarvis, Giulio Formenti, and Jennifer Balacco.

褐安乐蜥（Anolis sagrei）是安乐蜥科（Dactyloidae）下的一种蜥蜴。该物种原产于古巴与巴哈马群岛。其已通过植物进出口贸易被广泛引种至其他区域——安乐蜥常会在盆栽土壤中产卵，随苗木传播至新的生境。目前该物种已见于美国佛罗里达州，北至佐治亚州南部、得克萨斯州、路易斯安那州、田纳西州、密西西比州、阿拉巴马州、夏威夷州以及加利福尼亚州南部。此外，它还被引入至其他加勒比群岛、墨西哥以及中国台湾地区（本段内容摘自维基百科词条）。此次采集自美国佛罗里达州棕榈海岸的雌性个体样本（编号rAnoSag3），属于一套三亲本基因组组装的一部分，该组装包含子代个体rAnoSag1与父本个体rAnoSag2。该样本由唐尼亚·施瓦茨（Tonia Schwartz）采集，安妮·布罗尼科夫斯基（Anne Bronikowski）统筹，旨在为脊椎动物基因组计划（Vertebrate Genomes Project, VGP）构建高质量参考基因组。基因组测序与组装工作由洛克菲勒大学脊椎动物基因组实验室（Vertebrate Genome Lab, VGL）完成，项目负责人为埃里希·D·贾维斯（Erich D. Jarvis）、朱利奥·福尔门蒂（Giulio Formenti）与珍妮弗·巴拉克洛（Jennifer Balacco）。
