As of July 2020, genome assemblies for eleven species of Peromyscus mice have been generated by the community. While most of these assemblies are short-read based, one assembly is based on long reads resulting in a much-increased contiguity (contig N50 size). Moreover, two assemblies have been scaffolded to chromosome level using mate pair reads and genetic maps.

Peromyscus attwateri	Texas deer mouse	scaffold	20 kb	2.495 Gb
Peromyscus aztecus	Aztec mouse	scaffold	19 kb	2.488 Gb
Peromyscus californicus insignis	California mouse	scaffold	33 kb	2.561 Gb
Peromyscus eremicus	Cactus mouse	scaffold	64 kb	2.714 Gb
Peromyscus leucopus	White-footed mouse	scaffold	4,103 kb	2.474 Gb
Peromyscus maniculatus bairdii	Prairie deer mouse	chromosome scaffold	30 kb 36 kb	2.512 Gb 2.631
Peromyscus melanophrys	Plateau mouse	scaffold	16 kb	2.404 Gb
Peromyscus nudipes		scaffold	20 kb	2.440 Gb
Peromyscus polionotus subgriseus	Oldfield mouse	chromosome	13 kb	2.645 Gb

As of July 2020, more than 500 RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) Peromyscus mice tissue samples have been made publicly available on NCBI/SRA by the community. These samples include a variety of tissues (e.g. including liver, kidney, blood, heart, skin, brown adipose tissue, reproductive tissue, and several brain regions), both sexes, and different experimental or natural conditions (e.g. parasite/pathogen infection, high/low altitude environment).
