“…However, a combination of NGS and flow sorting was used successfully for chromosomal genomics studies in wheat and barley [e.g., Šimková et al, 2008;Mayer et al, 2011;Hernandez et al, 2012;Martis et al, 2012;Cápal et al, 2015;Sánchez-Martín et al, 2016] and a few mammalian species, including the Tasmanian devil [Murchison et al, 2012], Chinese hamster [Brinkrolf et al, 2013], gorilla [Tomaszkiewicz et al, 2016], cervids , and mouse [Sudbery et al, 2009]. In reptiles, shotgun sequencing of isolated chromosomes was performed only recently by Kichigin et al [2016] to determine the sequence of A. sagrei and A. carolinensis microchromosomes and extend the work done on macrochromosomes by Alföldi et al [2011]. However, a comprehensive high-resolution chromosomal map built using an NGS/flow sorting approach has yet to be developed for nonavian reptiles.…”
