Background genomic information for each sample: strain or sample ID, expected ploidy level, inbred status, and haploid genome size for each HiFi read dataset.

Organism	Strain	Ploidy	Inbred	Haploid Genome Size (Mb)
M. musculus	C57BL/6 J	2n	Yes	2,700
Z. mays	B73	2n	Yes	2,200
F. × ananassa	Royal Royce	8n	No	800*
R. muscosa	KB 21384; ISIS # 916035	2n	No	9,000ǂ
Metagenome Std	MSA-1003	N/A	N/A	67

^*The estimate haploid genome size of F. × ananassa ‘Royal Royce’ is based on the size of the sequenced F. × ananassa ‘Camarosa’²⁶.

^ǂThe haploid genome size of R. muscosa is estimated at 9 Gb based on the estimated genome sizes of 8,600 to 9,100 Mb for two closely related species (R. aurora and R. cascadae)²⁷ as well as the size estimate provided by our k-mer analysis.
