Patagioenas maculosa albipennis
The white-winged pigeon (Patagioenas albipennis) is a columbiform bird taxon of the genus Patagioenas that inhabits valleys and ravines in mountainous areas of central-west South America (translated from Spanish Wikipedia entry). This sample of a female individual was procured from the breeding center project "The Dodo Park" owned by Nasser Bin Mohamed Al-Jbr in northern Qatar to generate a high-quality reference genome for Revive & Restore 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.
