Two low coverage bird genomes and a comparison of reference-guided versus de novo genome assemblies.

As a greater number and diversity of high-quality vertebrate reference genomes become available, it is increasingly feasible to use these references to guide new draft assemblies for related species. Reference-guided assembly approaches may substantially increase the contiguity and completeness of a...
