Project name: Anolis carolinensis strain:JBL SC #1

Description: Anolis carolinensis.This lizard species is a model organism for laboratory-based studies of organismal function and for field studies of ecology and evolution. This species was chosen for genome sequencing in part because of the ease and low expense of captive breeding, well studied brain, and sophisticated color vision. It is also well suited for studies involving the role of hormones in development and adult nervous system plasticity.

Data type: RefSeq Genome sequencing and assembly

Sample scope: Monoisolate
