Genome assemblies of diverse avian species
This study contains genome assemblies from multiple avian species generated as part of a comparative genomics effort to investigate genome evolution and biological diversity across birds.  Samples originate from museum collections and research specimens. Genomic DNA was sequenced using high-throughput sequencing technologies and assemblies were generated using standard genome assembly pipelines.  These genome assemblies contribute to expanding genomic resources for birds and support large-scale comparative analyses of avian genome structure, evolution, and adaptation.
