New publication: The era of reference genomes in conservation genomics

By Formenti et al. (including Rebekah A. Oomen, Kjetill S. Jakobsen and Sissel Jentoft) in Trends in Ecology & Evolution

Progress in genome sequencing now enables the large-scale generation of reference genomes. Various international initiatives aim to generate reference genomes representing global biodiversity. These genomes provide unique insights into genomic diversity and architecture, thereby enabling comprehensive analyses of population and functional genomics, and are expected to revolutionize conservation genomics.
