Abstract excerpt
Although an increasing number of long-read genome assemblies have been created from a diverse collection of dogs and wolves, most published assemblies represent the diploid genome as a single primary sequence. Here, we generate and analyze phase-resolved diploid dual assemblies from five canines. The most contiguous assemblies represent over half of the canine chromosomes as single contigs, permitting an...
