Abstract
The reference genome of Rupicapra rupicapra (subsp. rupicapra) provides insights into the genetic makeup that enabled this iconic mountain ungulate to adapt to its harsh environment, including its ability to survive in extreme weather and high altitudes--factors that are increasingly important in the face of climate change. A total of 29 contiguous chromosomal pseudomolecules were assembled from the genome sequence. This chromosome-level assembly encompasses 2.62 Gb, composed of 124 contigs and 76 scaffolds, with contig and scaffold N50 values of 77 Mb and 101 Mb, respectively.
