Table 3.
Assembly statistics for Delphinapterus leucas (beluga) and Monodon monoceros (narwhal). For novel reference genomes presented here, the contig statistics represent initial metrics following long read assembly using Flye. For BUSCO scores based on the vertebrata database (n = 3,354 BUSCOs), S = single, D = duplicated, F = fragmented, M = missing. Note, BUSCO for previously published assemblies were reanalysed here to ensure consistency
