title: shotgun wgs of pelicans occidentalis: adult blood
design: 1  g of DNA was sheared  to create an Illumina paired-end shotgun library on a sample preparation Covaris S220 System (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA) using the standard protocol in the Illumina TruSeq DNA Library Kit and a multiplex identifier adaptor index (Savannah River Ecology Laboratory). Paired-end reads of 100 base pairs (bp) were sequenced on the HiSeq automated sequencer (Illumina, CA, USA).
