Aquatic Warbler WGS Biebrza & W Pomerania
The goal of the study was to explore inbreeding and genetic diversity in the threatened aquatic warbler (Acrocephalus paludicola) using whole-genome sequencing of samples from two populations: the declining, moderately sized and isolated West Pomerania, sampled in 1999; and the large and stable Biebrza Valley, sampled in 1997 and 2018. The samples were sequenced with the Illumina Nova Seq X Plus Series instrument (PE 150).
