Project description:Pufferfish are ideal models for vertebrate chromosome evolution studies. The yellowbelly pufferfish, Takifugu flavidus, is an important marine fish species in the aquaculture industry and ecology of East Asia. The chromosome assembly of the species could facilitate the study of chromosome evolution and functional gene mapping. To this end, 44, 27 and 50 Gb reads were generated for genome assembly using Illumina, PacBio and Hi-C sequencing technologies, respectively. More than 13 Gb full-length transcripts were sequenced on the PacBio platform. A 366 Mb genome was obtained with the contig of 4.4 Mb and scaffold N50 length of 15.7 Mb. 266 contigs were reliably assembled into 22 chromosomes, representing 95.9% of the total genome. A total of 29,416 protein-coding genes were predicted and 28,071 genes were functionally annotated. More than 97.7% of the BUSCO genes were successfully detected in the genome. The genome resource in this work will be used for the conservation and population genetics of the yellowbelly pufferfish, as well as in vertebrate chromosome evolution studies.

Project description:IntroductionCamphora longepaniculata, a crucial commercial crop and a fundamental component of traditional Chinese medicine, is renowned for its abundant production of volatile terpenoids. However, the lack of available genomic information has hindered pertinent research efforts in the past.MethodsTo bridge this gap, the present study aimed to use PacBio HiFi, short-read, and highthroughput chromosome conformation capture sequencing to construct a chromosome-level assembly of the C. longepaniculata genome.Results and discussionWith twelve chromosomes accounting for 99.82% (766.69 Mb) of the final genome assembly, which covered 768.10 Mb, it was very complete. Remarkably, the assembly's contig and scaffold N50 values are exceptional as well-41.12 and 63.78 Mb, respectively-highlighting its excellent quality and intact structure. Furthermore, a total of 39,173 protein-coding genes were predicted, with 38,766 (98.96%) of them being functionally annotated. The completeness of the genome was confirmed by the Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Ortholog evaluation, which revealed 99.01% of highly conserved plant genes. As the first comprehensive assembly of the C. longepaniculata genome, it provides a crucial starting point for deciphering the complex pathways involved in terpenoid production. Furthermore, this excellent genome serves as a vital resource for upcoming research on the breeding and genetics of C. longepaniculata.

Project description:Acrossocheilus fasciatus (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae) is emerged as a newly commercial stream fish in the south of China with high economic and ornamental value. In this study, a chromosome-level reference genome of A. fasciatus was assembled using PacBio, Illumina and Hi-C sequencing technologies. As a result, a high-quality genome was generated with a size of 879.52 Mb (accession number: JAVLVS000000000), scaffold N50 of 32.7 Mb, and contig N50 of 32.7 Mb. The largest and smallest scafford was 60.57 Mb and 16 kb, respectively. BUSCO analysis showed a completeness score of 98.3%. Meanwhile, the assembled sequences were anchored to 25 pseudo-chromosomes with an integration efficiency of 96.95%. Additionally, we found approximately 390.91 Mb of repetitive sequences that accounting for 44.45% of the assembled genome, and predicted 24,900 protein-coding genes. The available genome reported in the present study provided a crucial resource to further investigate the regulation mechanism of genetic diversity, sexual dimorphism and evolutionary histories.

Project description:Plagiognathops microlepis is an economic freshwater fish in the subfamily Xenocyprinae of Cyprinidae. It is widely distributed in the freshwater ecosystem of China, with moderate economic value and broad development prospects. However, the lack of genomic resources has limited our understanding on the genetic basis, phylogenetic status and adaptive evolution strategies of this fish. Here, we assembled a chromosome-level reference genome of P. microlepis by integrating Pacbio HiFi long-reads, Illumina short-reads and Hi-C sequencing data. The size of this genome is 1004.34 Mb with a contig N50 of 38.80 Mb. Using Hi-C sequencing data, 99.59% of the assembled sequences were further anchored to 24 chromosomes. A total of 578.91 Mb repeat sequences and 28,337 protein-coding genes were predicted in the current genome, of which, 26,929 genes were functionally annotated. This genome provides valuable information for investigating the phylogeny and evolutionary history of cyprinid fishes, as well as the genetic basis of adaptive strategies and special traits in P. microlepis.

Project description:Nibea coibor belongs to Sciaenidae and is distributed in the South China Sea, East China Sea, India and the Philippines. In this study, we sequenced the DNA of a male Nibea coibor using PacBio long-read sequencing and generated chromatin interaction data. The genome size of Nibea coibor was estimated to be 611.85~633.88 Mb based on k-mer counts generated with Jellyfish. PacBio sequencing produced 29.26 Gb of HiFi reads, and Hifiasm was used to assemble a 627.60 Mb genome with a contig N50 of 10.66 Mb. We further found the canonical telomeric repeats "TTAGGG" to be present at the telomeres of all 24 chromosomes. The completeness of the assembly was estimated to be 98.9% and 97.8% using BUSCO and Merqury, respectively. Using the combination of ab initio prediction, protein homology and RNAseq annotation, we identified a total of 21,433 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analyses showed that Nibea coibor and Nibea albiflora are closely related. The results provide an important basis for research on the genetic breeding and genome evolution of Nibea coibor.

Project description:The largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) has become a cosmopolitan species due to its widespread introduction as game or domesticated fish. Here a high-quality chromosome-level reference genome of M. salmoides was produced by combining Illumina paired-end sequencing, PacBio single molecule sequencing technique (SMRT) and High-through chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) technologies. Ultimately, the genome was assembled into 844.88 Mb with a contig N50 of 15.68 Mb and scaffold N50 length of 35.77 Mb. About 99.9% assembly genome sequences (844.00 Mb) could be anchored to 23 chromosomes, and 98.03% assembly genome sequences could be ordered and directed. The genome contained 38.19% repeat sequences and 2693 noncoding RNAs. A total of 26,370 protein-coding genes from 3415 gene families were predicted, of which 97.69% were functionally annotated. The high-quality genome assembly will be a fundamental resource to study and understand how M. salmoides adapt to novel and changing environments around the world, and also be expected to contribute to the genetic breeding and other research.

Project description:Takifugu species serve as a model system for evolutionary studies due to their compact genomes and diverse phenotypes. The ocellated puffer (Takifugu ocellatus), characterized by special colouration, is a scarce anadromous species in the genus Takifugu. As an ornamental and tasty fish species, T. ocellatus has moderate economic value. However, the available genomic resources for this pufferfish are still limited. Here, a chromosome-level reference genome, as well as two haploid genomes, was constructed by PacBio HiFi long sequencing and Hi-C technologies. The total length of the reference genome was 375.62 Mb with a contig N50 of 11.55 Mb. The assembled sequences were anchored to 22 chromosomes with an integration efficiency of 93.78%. Furthermore, 28,808 protein-coding genes were predicted. The haplotype-resolved reference genome of T. ocellatus provides a crucial resource for investigating the explosive speciation of the Takifugu genus, such as elucidating evolutionary histories, determining the genetic basis of trait evolution, and supporting future conservation efforts.

Project description:Prunus mongolica is an ecologically and economically important xerophytic tree native to Northwest China. Here, we report a high-quality, chromosome-level P. mongolica genome assembly integrating PacBio high-fidelity sequencing and Hi-C technology. The assembled genome was 233.17 Mb in size, with 98.89% assigned to eight pseudochromosomes. The genome had contig and scaffold N50s of 24.33 Mb and 26.54 Mb, respectively, a BUSCO completeness score of 98.76%, and CEGMA indicated that 98.47% of the assembled genome was reliably annotated. The genome contained a total of 88.54 Mb (37.97%) of repetitive sequences and 23,798 protein-coding genes. We found that P. mongolica experienced two whole-genome duplications, with the most recent event occurring ~3.57 million years ago. Phylogenetic and chromosome syntenic analyses revealed that P. mongolica was closely related to P. persica and P. dulcis. Furthermore, we identified a number of candidate genes involved in drought tolerance and fatty acid biosynthesis. These candidate genes are likely to prove useful in studies of drought tolerance and fatty acid biosynthesis in P. mongolica, and will provide important genetic resources for molecular breeding and improvement experiments in Prunus species. This high-quality reference genome will also accelerate the study of the adaptation of xerophytic plants to drought.
