The Complete Genome Sequence of Morelia viridis, the Green Tree Python.

The Green Tree Python (Morelia viridis) is a snake native to New Guinea, some islands in Indonesia, and the Cape York Peninsula in Australia. We present the whole genome sequence for this species. Illumina sequencing was performed on a genetic sample from a single individual. The reads were assembled using a de novo method followed by a series of references from related species for finishing. The raw and assembled data are publicly available via Genbank: Sequence Read Archive (SRR19167500) and genome (JANHOE000000000).
