Abstract:We present here a high-quality genome assembly of the brown hare (Lepus europaeus Pallas), based on a fibroblast cell line of a male specimen from Liperi, Eastern Finland. This brown hare genome represents the first Finnish contribuSon to the European Reference Genome Atlas pilot effort to generate reference genomes for European biodiversity.The genome was assembled using 25X PacBio HiFi sequencing data and scaffolded uSlizing a Hi-C chromosome structure capture approach. A]er manual curaSon, the assembled gen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
