Good Evening - We are finishing work on the first full chromosome-level reference genome of M. novaeangliae. The raw data for the genome as well as the mitochondrial assembly are available on Dryad and/or NCBI.
Carminati, Maria-Vittoria et al. (2024). Novel Megaptera novaeangliae (Humpback whale) haplotype reference genome [Dataset]. Dryad. https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.dv41ns271 The method's paper is in press. We are moving onto sequencing 2-4 individuals from each of 14 identified herds, short reads, >30x. In that vein, I am reaching out to folks for two possible resources: 1) Do you have sequence-quality samples or do you know of particular repositories? 2) Do you have particular sequencing labs you like to work with? I have relationships with three but pricing is still quite high. Regards, Giugi Carminati
