Dog - Boxer (Dog10K_Boxer_Tasha)

Dog - Boxer assembly and gene annotation

Assembly

The Dog10K_Boxer_Tasha assembly was submitted by Dog Genome Sequencing Consortium and last updated on 2022-05-20. The assembly is on the chromosome level, consisting of 1162 contigs assembled into 147 scaffolds. The N50 size is the length such that 50% of the assembled genome lies in blocks of the N50 size or longer. The N50 length for the contigs is 27487084 while the scaffold N50 is 63738581.

Gene annotation

Genome annotation was generated using the Ensembl vertebrate annotation pipeline.

In accordance with the Fort Lauderdale Agreement, please check the publication status of the genome/assembly before publishing any genome-wide analyses using these data.
