The genome sequence of the common crane, Grus grus (Linnaeus, 1758) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of Grus grus (common crane; Chordata; Aves; Gruiformes; Gruidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,352.26 megabases and 1,291.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (91.85%) is scaffolded into 40 chromosomal pseudomolecules, in...

Description
Summary:We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of Grus grus (common crane; Chordata; Aves; Gruiformes; Gruidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,352.26 megabases and 1,291.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (91.85%) is scaffolded into 40 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.9 kilobases in length.
