Abstract
The Spectacled Fulvetta (Fulvetta ruficapilla) is the type species of Fulvetta, an evolutionarily distinct group whose species show a high degree of sympatry in distribution and phenotypic convergence. To pave the way for insights into their adaptive evolution and speciation, we have assembled the first high quality reference genome for F. ruficapilla using high-fidelity (HiFi) long-read and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The resulting assembly spans a total of ~1.21 Gb with a contig N50 of 18.8 Mb and scaffold N50 of 75.9 Mb, and has a BUSCO completeness of 97.0%. The quality assessment suggests a high standard in base accuracy, continuity, and completeness of the assembly, comparable or close to that of Vertebrate Genomes Project. On this basis, we have annotated 23,774 protein-coding genes, of which 18,832 are functionally identified. The availability of this high-quality genome provides a solid foundation for the future studies of evolution and local adaptation in birds.
期刊介绍：
Scientific Data is an open-access journal focused on data, publishing descriptions of research datasets and articles on data sharing across natural sciences, medicine, engineering, and social sciences. Its goal is to enhance the sharing and reuse of scientific data, encourage broader data sharing, and acknowledge those who share their data.
The journal primarily publishes Data Descriptors, which offer detailed descriptions of research datasets, including data collection methods and technical analyses validating data quality. These descriptors aim to facilitate data reuse rather than testing hypotheses or presenting new interpretations, methods, or in-depth analyses.
