title: MIGS Eukaryotic sample from Cebus aequatorialis
organism: Cebus aequatorialis
description: The project involves the collection of blood samples from Cebus aequatorialis (the Ecuadorian capuchin), a critically endangered primate species native to Ecuador. The primary goal is to extract high-quality DNA from these samples for whole-genome sequencing using nanopore long reads, part of the ORG.one initiative. This sequencing effort is part of a broader initiative to assemble the complete genome of Cebus aequatorialis, providing crucial genetic data that can inform conservation strategies, enhance understanding of the species' genetic diversity, and support efforts to protect and restore its populations in the wild.
