Hirundo rustica rustica isolate:Chelidonia Genome sequencing and assembly
The barn swallow (Hirundo rustica) is a migratory bird that has been the focus of a number of behavioural and genetic studies on account of the existence of geographically circumscribed subspecies, and highly specific migration patterns. To facilitate further genomic and population genetics studies, we present here a high quality draft genome sequence for the European subspecies (Hirundo rustica rustica).
