Project name: Carlito syrichta

Description: The Philippine tarsier genome is being sequenced at ~2X coverage by the Washington University Genome Sequencing Center and the Broad Institute using a whole genome shotgun sequencing strategy. As a prosimian primate, the genome sequence should provide greater depth to primate genome comparisons and a better understanding of primate genome evolution.

Data type: Genome sequencing and assembly

Sample scope: Monoisolate
