The first <i>Antechinus</i> reference genome provides a resource for investigating the genetic basis of semelparity and age-related neuropathologies

2020-09-21

Abstract excerpt

Antechinus are a genus of mouse-like marsupials that exhibit a rare reproductive strategy known as semelparity and also naturally develop age-related neuropathologies similar to those in humans. We provide the first annotated antechinus reference genome for the brown antechinus ( Antechinus stuartii ). The reference genome is 3.3Gb in size with a scaffold N50 of 73Mb and 93.3% complete mammalian BUSCOs. Using bio...
