The genome sequence of the pink-footed goose, Anser brachyrhynchus Baillon, 1834 [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a female pink-footed goose, Anser brachyrhynchus (Chordata; Aves; Anseriformes; Anatidae). The genome sequence spans 1,287.30 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 41 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.74 kilobases in length.
