This paper updates the Japanese population-specific reference genome JG1 to JG2 using Hi-C and meta-assembly methods, improving coverage and accuracy for genetic research.

The paper develops resources for NGS analysis using the Japanese reference genome JG, including variant calling, annotation, and coordinate conversion tools.

This paper constructs and integrates three de novo Japanese human genome assemblies to create a population-specific reference, improving variant calling accuracy for Japanese individuals.
