Three chromosome-level duck genome assemblies provide insights into genomic variation during domestication

Domestic ducks are descended from the Mallard and have been bred for several purposes. Here the authors present three high-quality duck genome assemblies which recover previously missing genes and provide a rich resource of variants potentially related to domestication.
