title: WGS of Hapalemur griseus: Adult male whole blood
design: High molecular weight (HMW) DNA was extracted from 200 L of whole blood using a MagAttract HMW DNA Kit (QIAGEN Sciences Inc., Germantown, MD) following the manufacturers protocol.  DNA was eluted into a low-bind 1.5 mL tube and stored at 4C prior to size selection. In order to obtain DNA fragments roughly 40 kilobases or longer, the extracted HMW DNA was run through a Blue Pippin DNA Size Selection System (Sage Science Inc., Beverly, MA) using a 0.75% agarose gel cassette with the R1 size standard.
