<\/p>\n

After a reference<\/a> genome<\/a> for<\/a> the<\/a> panther<\/a> chameleon<\/a> (Furcifer pardalis<\/em>) was recently published for the first time in China, scientists from South Africa have now followed with the genome of two dwarf chameleon species.<\/p>\n

For the analyses, a male Bradypodion pumilum<\/em> from Cape Town and a male Bradypodion ventrale<\/em> from an introduced population in Johannesburg were taken. Muscle and liver tissue was used for long sequencing (HiC). The genome size of Bradypodion pumilum<\/em> is 2.43 gigabase pairs (Gb), that of Bradypodion ventrale<\/em> 2.40 Gb. The BUSCO analysis demonstrated a high completeness with about 97% of all existing coding genes in vertebrates. Furthermore, the current publication confirms the six macrochromosomes already found from the karyotype in Bradypodion thamnobates<\/em> 2017. Various comparisons with Anolis sagrei<\/em> were made. It remains open which chromosomes in Bradypodion<\/em> are sex chromosomes.<\/p>\n

The genomes can be viewed in the NCBI BioProject under the number PRJNA9861319<\/a> and under the BioSample numbers SAMN35825189 and SAMN35825190 respectively.<\/p>\n
