A beary good genome: Haplotype-resolved, chromosome-level assembly of the brown bear ( <i>Ursus arctos</i> )
2022-06-18
Abstract excerpt
The brown bear ( Ursus arctos ) is the second largest and most widespread extant terrestrial carnivore on Earth and has recently emerged as a medical model for human metabolic diseases. Here, we report a fully-phased chromosome-level assembly of a male North American brown bear built by combining Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) HiFi data and publicly available Hi-C data. The final genome size is 2.47 Gigabases (Gb)...
