title: Long-read WGS of Crotalus ruber blood
design: A high-quality reference genome for Crotalus ruber was produced from a subadult male (66.5 cm SVL, 71.0 cm TL) sampled near Baha de los ngeles, Baja California, MX. High-molecular-weight (HMW) genomic DNA (gDNA) was obtained from blood extracted from the caudal vein. The genome was sequenced using Pacific Biosciences HiFi sequencing on 1.5 cells on the Sequel II sequencer at the University of Delaware Sequencing \& Genotyping Center in Newark, DE, USA.
