Description: The two-toed sloth is being sequenced at ~65X coverage by the Washington University Genome Sequencing Center. The sloth genome diverged relatively early in placental mammal evolution and its sequence will facilitate our understanding of the ancestral eutherian genome.
Data type: Genome sequencing and assembly
Sample scope: Monoisolate
Organization: Broad Institute; Washington University (WashU)
