The Sequoia sempervirens genome was sequenced and assembled at PacBio in February 2020 and provided as a gift to the community. A 24Kb PacBio HiFi Library was prepared and sequenced and the raw HiFi data was accessioned and deposited in NCBI under BioProject PRJNA606797. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/PRJNA606797 HiFi reads used to generate the assembly can be found in the SRA: https://trace.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Traces/sra/?study=SRP251156 The raw data was assembled in just under 6 days using Hifiasm on a computer with 64 cores and 512Gb of ram.
