Animal sample from Leptodactylus fuscus (rufous frog) for VGP reference genome, aLepFus1
Leptodactylus fuscus
the rufous frog (Leptodactylus fuscus) is in the Leptodactylidae family, and is found throughout South America, in subtropical or tropical dry forests. Its local names are rana picuda ("woodcock frog") and rana silbador ("whistling frog"). This sample is from a male located in Bogota Colombia, collected by Melissa Hernandez, coordinated by Andrew Crawford, and used to generate a high-quality reference genome for the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP). Sequencing and genome assembly were conducted at the Vertebrate Genomes Lab (VGL) at the Rockefeller University, led by Olivier Fedrigo and Erich D. Jarvis.
