Chromosome-level genome assembly of the Chinese longsnout catfish Leiocassis longirostris.

ABSTRACT: The Chinese longsnout catfish ( Leiocassis longirostris Günther) is one of the most economically important freshwater fish in China. As wild populations have declined sharply in recent years, it is also a valuable model for research on sexual dimorphism, comparative biology, and conservation. However, the current lack of high-quality chromosome-level genome information for the species hinders the advancement of comparative genomic analysis and evolutionary studies. Therefore, we constructed the first high-quality chromosome-level reference genome for L. longirostris. The total genome was 703.19 Mb, with 389 contigs and contig N50 length of 4.29 Mb. Using high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data, the genome sequences (685.53 Mb) were scaffolded into 26 chromosomes ranging from 17.36 to 43.97 Mb, resulting in a chromosomal anchoring rate for the genome of 97.44%. In total, 23 708 protein-coding genes were identified in the genome. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that L. longirostris and its closest related species P. fulvidraco diverged approximately 26.6 million years ago. This high-quality reference genome of L. longirostris should pave the way for future genomic comparisons and evolutionary research.

Characterization of pathogenic Aeromonas veronii bv. veronii associated with ulcerative syndrome from chinese longsnout catfish (Leiocassis longirostris Gunther).

Project description:273 bacterial strains were isolated from 20 Chinese longsnout catfish samples. The biochemical characteristics of all strains conformed to the species description of Aeromonas veronii bv. veronii on the basis of Vitek GNI+ card. Furthermore, 16S rDNA, gyrB and rpoD sequences of the representative strain PY50 were sequenced and showed high similarity with A. veronii bv. veronii in Genbank. Antibiotic-resistance of the representative strain PY50 was assessed by the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method, and the results showed it was susceptible and moderately susceptible to 13 and 4 of the 21 antimicrobial agents tested. Extracellular products of strain PY50 contained gelatinase, lecithinase, elastase, most of lipase and lipopolysaccharide. Virulence of strain PY50 and extracellular products to Chinese longsnout catfish were also tested, and LD50 were about 3.47×10(4) CFU per fish and 11.22 ?g per fish in intraperitoneal injection respectively. This is the first report that A. veronii bv. veronii was the pathogenic agent of ulcerative syndrome in Chinese longsnout catfish.

A chromosome-level genome assembly of the darkbarbel catfish Pelteobagrus vachelli.

Project description:The darkbarbel catfish (Pelteobagrus vachelli), an economically important aquaculture species in China, is extensively employed in hybrid yellow catfish production due to its superior growth rate. However, information on its genome has been limited, constraining further genetic studies and breeding programs. Leveraging the power of PacBio long-read sequencing and Hi-C technologies, we present a high-quality, chromosome-level genome assembly for the darkbarbel catfish. The resulting assembly spans 692.10 Mb, with an impressive 99.9% distribution over 26 chromosomes. The contig N50 and scaffold N50 are 13.30 Mb and 27.55 Mb, respectively. The genome is predicted to contain 22,109 protein-coding genes, with 96.1% having functional annotations. Repeat elements account for approximately 35.79% of the genomic landscape. The completeness of darkbarbel catfish genome assembly is highlighted by a BUSCO score of 99.07%. This high-quality genome assembly provides a critical resource for future hybrid catfish breeding, comparative genomics, and evolutionary studies in catfish and other related species.

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the largefin longbarbel catfish (Hemibagrus macropterus).

Project description:The largefin longbarbel catfish, Hemibagrus macropterus, is an economically important fish species in southwestern China, with males growing faster than females. This study presents a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of the largefin longbarbel catfish, generated by integrating Illumina short reads, PacBio HiFi long reads, and Hi-C data. The assembled genome size was 858.5 Mb, with a contig and scaffold N50 of 5.8 Mb and 28.4 Mb, respectively. A total of 656 contigs were successfully anchored to 30 pseudochromosomes with a BUSCO score of 97.7%, consistent with the number of chromosomes analyzed by karyotype. The genome contained 29.5% repeat sequences, and a predicted total of 26,613 protein-coding genes, of which 25,769 (96.8%) were functionally annotated in different databases. Evolutionary analysis showed that H. macropterus was most closely related to H. wyckioides, with a divergence time of approximately 16.3 million years. Chromosomal syntenic relationships among H. macropterus, H. wyckioides, and Pelteobagrus fulvidraco revealed a one-to-one relationship for most chromosomes, except for break, fission, and inversion of some chromosomes. The first high-quality reference genome will not only provide a valuable genetic resource for the study of sex determination mechanisms and genetic breeding of largefin longbarbel catfish, but also contribute to comparative analyses of genome and chromosome evolution within Siluriformes.

Hypermucoviscous Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella variicola Strain LL2208 Isolated from Chinese Longsnout Catfish (Leiocassis longirostris): Highly Similar to Human K. variicola Strains.

Project description:Outbreaks of bacterial diseases occur in farmed Chinese longsnout catfish (Leiocassis longirostris). Due to limited information on aquatic Klebsiella variicola-infected animals, this study aimed to identify strain LL2208 isolated from diseased L. longirostris, determine its biological features, and evaluate its risk to public health. Strain LL2208 was tested for molecular identification, challenge, string, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial susceptibility. Furthermore, the whole genome of the strain was sequenced and analyzed. Based on molecular identification, strain LL2208 was identified as K. variicola. Artificial infection showed that this strain was moderately virulent to L. longirostris with an LD50 = 7.92 × 107 CFU/mL. Antibiotic sensitivity tests showed that this strain was resistant to penicillins, macrolides, aminoglycosides, amphenicols, glycopeptides, and lincosamide, indicating multidrug resistance. Strain LL2208 has a genome size of 5,557,050 bp, with a GC content of 57.38%, harboring 30 antimicrobial resistance genes and numerous virulence-related genes. Its molecular type was ST595-KL16-O5. Collinearity analysis showed that strain LL2208 was highly similar to the human-derived K. variicola strain. In conclusion, the multidrug-resistant and virulent K. variicola strain LL2208 was isolated from fish and may have originated from humans. These results provide a foundation for further studies on the transmission of K. variicola between humans and aquatic animals.

De novo chromosome-level genome assembly of Chinese motherwort (Leonurus japonicus).

Project description:Chinese motherwort (Leonurus japonicus), a member of Lamiaceae family, is a commonly used medicinal herb for treating obstetrical and gynecological diseases, producing over 280 officinal natural products. Due to limited genomic resources, little progress has been made in deciphering the biosynthetic pathway of valuable natural products in L. japonicus. Here, we de novo assembled the L. japonicus genome using high-coverage ONT long reads and Hi-C reads. The chromosome-level genome assembly contained ten chromosomes representing 99.29% of 489.34 Mb genomic sequence with a contig and scaffold N50 of 7.27 Mb and 50.86 Mb, respectively. Genome validations revealed BUSCO and LAI score of 99.2% and 21.99, respectively, suggesting high quality of genome assembly. Using transcriptomic data from various tissues, 22,531 protein-coding genes were annotated. Phylogenomic analysis of 13 angiosperm plants suggested L. japonicus had 58 expanded gene families functionally enriched in specialized metabolism such as diterpenoid biosynthesis. The genome assembly, annotation, and sequencing data provide resources for the elucidation of biosynthetic pathways behind natural products of pharmaceutical applications in L. japonicus.
