Comparison of BUSCO completeness statistics based on the Carnivora database between our final de novo leopard seal and Mediterranean monk seal genomes and selected available seal assemblies. The x-axis shows the BUSCO completeness in percent. Complete single-copy genes are shaded light blue; complete duplicated sequences are shaded blue. Fragmented genes are shaded yellow, and missing sequences are shaded red. The numbers of complete single-copy (S), complete duplicated (D), fragmented (F), and missing genes (M) for the respective genome are shown in each column. The total number of genes in the BUSCO Carnivora library is denoted as n
