Now out! Paper led by @philmor1964.bsky.social and the The Cetacean Genomes Project. An effort by many, we present 13 new, high-quality reference genomes for cetaceans 🐬🐋 following @vertebrategenomes.bsky.social and @ebpgenome.bsky.social standards for a group that is very hard to sample from.

Among many things, we predicted 22 Ancestral Linkage Groups for cetaceans. Most species conserved them, while Balaenidae&Kogiidae independently fused the same two ALGs into their largest chrms. Ziphiidae shows specific fusions. Very glad to be part of this effort: www.frontiersin.org/journals/mar...
