This genome data was supported by funding from the NCRIS supported Bioplatforms Australia Threatened Species Initiative and the University of Sydney. Computational resources were provided by Galaxy Australia, a service provided by the Australian Biocommons and its partners; Australian FGENESH++ Service provided by the Australian BioCommons and the Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre with funding from the Australian Government and the Government of Western Australia; and the University of Sydney’s High Performance Computing facility Artemis provided by the Sydney Informatics Hub. We wish to acknowledge the use of the services and facilities of the Australian Genome Research Facility and Ramaciotti Centre for Genomics, UNSW. KAF is supported by the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Innovations in Peptide and Protein Science (CE200100012). LWS is supported by the Australian BioCommons which is enabled by NCRIS via Bioplatforms Australia and the University of Sydney. The authors would like to thank the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (TMAG) for dissection, storage and shipping of the samples used to generate the genome and transcriptomes.
