| Abstract |
We present Ocean Genomes, a program dedicated to producing reference genome resources to facilitate improved monitoring approaches and management outcomes for marine vertebrate biodiversity. Ocean Genomes will generate high-quality reference genomes of representatives of all marine vertebrate families and additional high-conservation-value species. Draft-quality genomes may be produced for a more comprehensive sampling of species. We include case studies of Enoplosus armatus, Old Wife and Pempheris klunzingeri, Rough Bullseye. |
