We assessed completeness with BUSCO, annotation of protein-coding genes, and repetitve ccontent. We also assessed synteny with the domestic cattle and effective population size and demographic history using PSMC. We assembled and annotated the mitochondrial genomes of 4 Mountain bongo individuals to assess their phylogenetic placement among the western subspecies (T. e. eurycerus), an indivudal from the Congo (Central Africa) an other Tragelpahus species.
