A high-quality reference genome for the ornate shrew (Sorex ornatus).
The ornate shrew (Sorex ornatus) is a small predatory mammal with a broad distribution in northern, central, and southern California as well as in Baja California, Mexico. The ornate shrew is a highly productive consumer in wetland environments and is known to hybridize with the closely related vagrant shrew, S. vagrans. Here we present a high-quality de novo genome assembly for S. ornatus generated as a part of the California Conservation Genomics Project. The S. ornatus genome was generated using PacBio HiFi long reads and Omni-C chromatin interaction sequencing. The primary assembly is highly contiguous, with a contig N50 of 15.9 Mb, a scaffold N50 of 115.2 Mb, and a BUSCO completeness score of 95.10%. The ornate shrew genome will serve as a valuable resource for future North American Sorex conservation genomics as well as for research into shrew biology more generally.
期刊介绍:
Over the last 100 years, the Journal of Heredity has established and maintained a tradition of scholarly excellence in the publication of genetics research. Virtually every major figure in the field has contributed to the journal.
Established in 1903, Journal of Heredity covers organismal genetics across a wide range of disciplines and taxa. Articles include such rapidly advancing fields as conservation genetics of endangered species, population structure and phylogeography, molecular evolution and speciation, molecular genetics of disease resistance in plants and animals, genetic biodiversity and relevant computer programs.
