Patagioenas speciosa (scaled pigeon) genome, bPatSpe1

The scaled pigeon (Patagioenas speciosa) is a large New World tropical dove. It is a resident breeder from southern Mexico south to western Ecuador, southern Brazil, northern Argentina, and Trinidad (from Wikipedia entry). This sample of a female individual was procured from the breeding center project "The Dodo Park" owned by Nasser Bin Mohamed Al-Jbr in northern Qatar and coordinated by Simona Secomandi and supported by Ben Novak to generate a high-quality reference genome for Revive & Restore and the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP). Sequencing was done by the Vertebrate Genome Lab (VGL) at the Rockefeller University, led by Erich D. Jarvis, Giulio Formenti, and Jennifer Balacco, and assembly and manual curation were done by Secomandi.
