Animal sample from Aplocheilus lineatus (striped panchax) for VGP reference genome, fAplLin1
Aplocheilus lineatus
The striped panchax (Aplocheilus lineatus) is a species of killifish, of the genus Aplocheilus. It inhabits fresh and brackish waters of India and Sri Lanka and is found in streams, rivers, swamps, and paddy fields (from Wikipedia entry). This sample was collected from a male adult bred in captivity at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan by Andrew W. Thompson to generate a high-quality reference genome for a study on killifish genomics and the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP). Sequencing and genome assembly were conducted at the Vertebrate Genome Lab (VGL) at the Rockefeller University, led by Erich D. Jarvis, Giulio Formenti, and Jennifer Balacco. Manual curation was done by Genoscope in France.
