Approved primate genome sequencing projects

[i] aOnly approved targets are listed. Proposals are pending for several others, including the owl monkey, Chinese rhesus macaque, pigtail macaque, and sooty mangabey. For the latest information, see http://www.genome.gov/10002154.
[ii] b(GA) Great Apes; (LA) Lesser Apes (Gibbons); (OWM) Old World Moneys; (NWM) New World Monkeys; (Pro) Prosimians.
[iii] cThe goal is a high-quality draft assembly in all cases except human (which is finished) and bonobo (which will be surveyed with fosmid-end sequencing).
[iv] d(BI/MIT) Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard University; (WUGSC) Washington University Genome Sequencing Center; (BCM-HGSC) Baylor College of Medicine Human Genome Sequencing Center; (TIGR/JTC) The Institute for Genomic Research/J. Craig Venter Institute; (WTSI) Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. All projects are NHGRI-funded except Gorilla.
[v] eRefinement in process.
[vi] fWith targeted BAC finishing.
[vii] gPreliminary draft assembly available.
[viii] hLow-coverage (2× Sanger sequencing coverage) assembly complete.
