A bobcat reference genome assembly. (A) A bobcat, Lynx rufus (photograph credit: Laurel Serieys). (B) Representative habitats for bobcats (photograph credit: Barry Rowan). (C) Phylogenetic relationships in the Lynx genus. The IUCN Red List status (EN, Endangered; LC, Least Concern) and genome assembly availability (yes: available on NCBI, no: unavailable on NCBI) are denoted. Divergence time estimates are in units of million years ago (Mya, Johnson et al. 2006). (D) NGx plot comparing the 3 available Lynx genome assemblies. This plot shows the x fraction of genome assembly that is represented by scaffolds of at least y Mb. The N50 value is represented by the dashed vertical line. Our bobcat assembly (purple) has similar scaffold-level contiguity with the Canada lynx assembly (orange). The Iberian lynx assembly (green) has lower scaffold-level contiguity. The names for 5 longest Canada lynx chromosomes are annotated (See online version for color figure).
