The genome sequence of the Mauritius parakeet, Alexandrinus eques (formerly Psittacula eques ) (A.Newton & E. Newton, 1876)

We present a genome assembly from an individual male , formerly (the Mauritius Parakeet; Chordata; Aves; Psittaciformes; Psittacidae). The genome sequence is 1203.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 35 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochon...

Description
Summary:We present a genome assembly from an individual male , formerly (the Mauritius Parakeet; Chordata; Aves; Psittaciformes; Psittacidae). The genome sequence is 1203.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 35 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.86 kilobases in length.
