Fejervarya limnocharis (Asian grass frog) genome, aFejLim2, sequence data
Fejervarya limnocharis is a species of frog found in South East Asia and parts of Indochina. It is known under many common names, including Boie's wart frog, rice field frog, and Asian grass frog. Molecular studies of the species complex suggest that there may be multiple species involved (from Wikipedia entry). This sample of a female individual found in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam, was procured by Phan Duy Khanh and Le Van Manh and coordinated by Nguyen Ngoc Sang to generate a high-quality reference genome for 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.
