Massive genomic study of California’s biodiversity

The California Conservation Genomics Project (CCGP) is a state-funded initiative with a single goal: to produce the most comprehensive, multispecies, genomic dataset ever assembled to help manage regional biodiversity. The project is now in phase two, producing a series of papers that will both advance the state-of-the-art understanding of species integral to California’s biodiversity and, in later phases of the CCGP, inform conservation policy.
