TL;DR
This paper provides the genome sequence of the black-headed gull, including chromosomal and mitochondrial data.
Contribution
The novel contribution is the first genome assembly for the black-headed gull, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and mitochondrial DNA.
Findings
The genome assembly spans 1,417.60 megabases and includes 33 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
The mitochondrial genome is 16.82 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Chroicocephalus ridibundus (the black-headed gull; Chordata; Aves; Charadriiformes; Laridae). The genome sequence spans 1,417.60 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 33 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.82 kilobases in length.
