Whole genome sequencing and assembly of the house sparrow, Passer domesticus.
The common house sparrow, Passer domesticus, is a small bird belonging to the family Passeridae. Here, we provide high-quality whole-genome sequencing data along with its assembly for the house sparrow. The final genome assembly was generated using a workflow that included Shovill, SPAdes, MaSuRCA, and BUSCO. The assembly consists of contigs spanning 268,193 bases and coalescing around a 922 MB sized reference genome. We used rigorous statistical thresholds to check the coverage, as the Passer genome showed considerable similarity to the Gallus gallus (chicken) and Taeniopygia guttata (Zebra finch) genomes, also providing functional annotations. This new annotated genome assembly will be a valuable resource for comparative and population genomic analyses of passerine, avian, and vertebrate evolution.
