A near telomere-to-telomere phased reference assembly for the male mountain gorilla

Abstract The endangered mountain gorilla, Gorilla beringei beringei, faces numerous threats to its survival, highlighting the urgent need for genomic resources to aid conservation efforts. Here, we present a near telomere-to-telomere, haplotype-phased reference genome assembly for a male mountain go...
