Croc CoGe

CoGe provides support for the International Crocodilian Genomes Working Group (ICGWG). ICGWG is leading a large-scale effort to use genomic methods to examine crocodilian biology. We have targeted the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis), saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus), and gharial (Gavialis gangeticus) for genome sequencing and have produced preliminary genome assemblies. Current genome assemblies are available on CoGe for easy comparative analyses.
