The genome sequence of the lesser white-fronted goose, Anser erythropus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Anseriformes: Anatidae).

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Anser erythropus (lesser white-fronted goose; Chordata; Aves; Anseriformes; Anatidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1 339.88 megabases and 1 168.02 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (88.67%) is scaffolded into 41 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.74 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

The genome sequence of the Taiga Bean Goose, Anser fabalis (Latham, 1787) (Anseriformes: Anatidae).

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Anser fabalis (Taiga Bean-Goose; Chordata; Aves; Anseriformes; Anatidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1 316.27 megabases. Most of the assembly (87.89%) is scaffolded into 38 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.74 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

The genome sequence of the Eurasian Spoonbill, Platalea leucorodia Linnaeus, 1758 (Pelecaniformes: Threskiornithidae).

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Platalea leucorodia (Eurasian Spoonbill; Chordata; Aves; Pelecaniformes; Threskiornithidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1 345.83 megabases and 1 190.44 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (95.57%) is scaffolded into 37 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 17.15 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
