[Data Type] Genomic

[Data Summary] The King penguin is the second largest species of penguin. They
have a circumpolar range, breeding on the subantarctic islands at the northern
reaches of Antarctica, South Georgia, and other temperate islands. They were
heavily hunted for oil on Macquarie Island. King penguins appear to have
suffered a major population declines, and 70% are expected to  disappear in the
next eighty years, however they are still considered as Least Concern by the
International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).<br>We sequenced the
genome of an adult King penguin from Fortuna Bay, South Georgia (provided by Tom
Hart) to a depth of approximately 120x with short reads from a series of
libraries with various insert sizes (250bp-20Kb). The assembled scaffolds of
high quality sequences total 1.24Gb, with the contig and scaffold N50 values of
114.03Kb and 2.77Mb respectively. We identified 15195 protein-coding genes.
