Abstract
Reference genome assemblies are essential infrastructure for investigating phylogeny and population/conservation genetics of wild organisms. Birds serve as model vertebrates in ecology and evolutionary biology due to their well-documented natural histories and extensive community science data. We release a set of 350 newly assembled avian genomes, which, when combined with 97 previously published genomes, represent 447 of the bird species recorded in Denmark, the Faroe Islands, and Greenland-the largest regional dataset of a vertebrate group to date. These genomes are published for various research activities. This data release advances the global effort to build comprehensive and accessible biodiversity genomic resources for the research community.
期刊介绍:
GigaScience seeks to transform data dissemination and utilization in the life and biomedical sciences. As an online open-access open-data journal, it specializes in publishing "big-data" studies encompassing various fields. Its scope includes not only "omic" type data and the fields of high-throughput biology currently serviced by large public repositories, but also the growing range of more difficult-to-access data, such as imaging, neuroscience, ecology, cohort data, systems biology and other new types of large-scale shareable data.
