Abstract
The utility and importance of whole‐genome sequences are recognized across various fields, including evolution and conservation. However, for some taxa, like extinct species, using methods to generate contiguous genomes that rely on high‐quality DNA is impossible. In such cases, an alternative may be to employ synteny‐based methods using a genome from a closely related taxon to generate more complete genomes. Here we update the reference genome for the Pinta Island Galapagos giant tortoise (Chelonoidis abingdonii) without conducting a
