The genome sequence of the common toad, Bufo bufo (Linnaeus, 1758) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2021
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Bufo bufo (the common toad; Chordata; Amphibia; Anura; Bufonidae). The genome sequence is 5.04 gigabases in span. The majority of the assembly (99.1%) is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
