Project description:Decapterus maruadsi is one of the representative offshore fish in the Western Pacific. Since the last century, it has become a commercially valuable marine fishery species in the Western Pacific region. Despite its high economic value, there is still a lack of high-quality reference genome of D. maruadsi in germplasm resource evaluation research. Here we report a chromosome-level reference genome of D. maruadsi based on Nanopore sequencing and Hi-C technologies. The whole genome was assembled through 169 contigs with a total length of 723.69 Mb and a contig N50 length of 24.67 Mb. By chromosome scaffolding, 23 chromosomes with a total length of 713.58 Mb were constructed. In addition, a total of 199.49 Mb repetitive elements, 33,515 protein-coding genes, and 6,431 ncRNAs were annotated in the reference genome. This reference genome of D. maruadsi will provide a solid theoretical basis not only for the subsequent development of genomic resources of D. maruadsi but also for the formulation of policies related to the protection of D. maruadsi.

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 Rock Bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus) is an economically important rocky reef fish of the Northwest Pacific Ocean. In recent years, it has been cultivated as an important edible fish in coastal areas of China. Despite its economic importance, genome-wide adaptions of domesticated O. fasciatus are largely unknown. Here we report a chromosome-level reference genome of female O. fasciatus (from the southern population in the subtropical region) using the PacBio single molecule sequencing technique (SMRT) and High-through chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) technologies. The genome was assembled into 120 contigs with a total length of 732.95 Mb and a contig N50 length of 27.33 Mb. After chromosome-level scaffolding, 24 chromosomes with a total length of 723.22 Mb were constructed. Moreover, a total of 27,015 protein-coding genes and 5,880 ncRNAs were annotated in the reference genome. This reference genome of O. fasciatus will provide an important resource not only for basic ecological and population genetic studies but also for dissect artificial selection mechanisms in marine aquaculture.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Juglans sigillata, or iron walnut, belonging to the order Juglandales, is an economically important tree species in Asia, especially in the Yunnan province of China. However, little research has been conducted on J. sigillata at the molecular level, which hinders understanding of its evolution, speciation, and synthesis of secondary metabolites, as well as its wide adaptability to its plateau environment. To address these issues, a high-quality reference genome of J. sigillata would be useful. FINDINGS:To construct a high-quality reference genome for J. sigillata, we first generated 38.0 Gb short reads and 66.31 Gb long reads using Illumina and Nanopore sequencing platforms, respectively. The sequencing data were assembled into a 536.50-Mb genome assembly with a contig N50 length of 4.31 Mb. Additionally, we applied BioNano technology to identify contacts among contigs, which were then used to assemble contigs into scaffolds, resulting in a genome assembly with scaffold N50 length of 16.43 Mb and contig N50 length of 4.34 Mb. To obtain a chromosome-level genome assembly, we constructed 1 Hi-C library and sequenced 79.97 Gb raw reads using the Illumina HiSeq platform. We anchored ?93% of the scaffold sequences into 16 chromosomes and evaluated the quality of our assembly using the high contact frequency heat map. Repetitive elements account for 50.06% of the genome, and 30,387 protein-coding genes were predicted from the genome, of which 99.8% have been functionally annotated. The genome-wide phylogenetic tree indicated an estimated divergence time between J. sigillata and Juglans regia of 49 million years ago on the basis of single-copy orthologous genes. CONCLUSIONS:We provide the first chromosome-level genome for J. sigillata. It will lay a valuable foundation for future research on the genetic improvement of J. sigillata.

Project description:The red-spotted grouper Epinephelus akaara (E. akaara) is one of the most economically important marine fish in China, Japan and South-East Asia and is a threatened species. The species is also considered a good model for studies of sex inversion, development, genetic diversity and immunity. Despite its importance, molecular resources for E. akaara remain limited and no reference genome has been published to date. In this study, we constructed a chromosome-level reference genome of E. akaara by taking advantage of long-read single-molecule sequencing and de novo assembly by Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) and Hi-C. A red-spotted grouper genome of 1.135 Gb was assembled from a total of 106.29 Gb polished Nanopore sequence (GridION, ONT), equivalent to 96-fold genome coverage. The assembled genome represents 96.8% completeness (BUSCO) with a contig N50 length of 5.25 Mb and a longest contig of 25.75 Mb. The contigs were clustered and ordered onto 24 pseudochromosomes covering approximately 95.55% of the genome assembly with Hi-C data, with a scaffold N50 length of 46.03 Mb. The genome contained 43.02% repeat sequences and 5,480 noncoding RNAs. Furthermore, combined with several RNA-seq data sets, 23,808 (99.5%) genes were functionally annotated from a total of 23,923 predicted protein-coding sequences. The high-quality chromosome-level reference genome of E. akaara was assembled for the first time and will be a valuable resource for molecular breeding and functional genomics studies of red-spotted grouper in the future.

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:Dendrobium huoshanense is used to treat various diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. Recent studies have identified active components. However, the lack of genomic data limits research on the biosynthesis and application of these therapeutic ingredients. To address this issue, we generated the first chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of D. huoshanense. We integrated PacBio sequencing data, Illumina paired-end sequencing data, and Hi-C sequencing data to assemble a 1.285?Gb genome, with contig and scaffold N50 lengths of 598?kb and 71.79?Mb, respectively. We annotated 21,070 protein-coding genes and 0.96?Gb transposable elements, constituting 74.92% of the whole assembly. In addition, we identified 252 genes responsible for polysaccharide biosynthesis by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes functional annotation. Our data provide a basis for further functional studies, particularly those focused on genes related to glycan biosynthesis and metabolism, and have implications for both conservation and medicine.

Project description:Dictyophora rubrovolvata, a rare edible mushroom with both nutritional and medicinal values, was regarded as the "queen of the mushroom" for its attractive appearance. Dictyophora rubrovolvata has been widely cultivated in China in recent years, and many researchers were focusing on its nutrition, culture condition, and artificial cultivation. Due to a lack of genomic information, research on bioactive substances, cross breeding, lignocellulose degradation, and molecular biology is limited. In this study, we report a chromosome-level reference genome of D. rubrovolvata using the PacBio single-molecule real-time-sequencing technique and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) technologies. A total of 1.83 Gb circular consensus sequencing reads representing ∼983.34 coverage of the D. rubrovolvata genome were generated. The final genome was assembled into 136 contigs with a total length of 32.89 Mb. The scaffold and contig N50 length were 2.71 and 2.48 Mb, respectively. After chromosome-level scaffolding, 11 chromosomes with a total length of 28.24 Mb were constructed. Genome annotation further revealed that 9.86% of the genome was composed of repetitive sequences, and a total of 508 noncoding RNA (rRNA: 329, tRNA: 150, ncRNA: 29) were annotated. In addition, 9,725 protein-coding genes were predicted, among which 8,830 (90.79%) genes were predicted using homology or RNA-seq. Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs results further revealed that there were 80.34% complete single-copy fungal orthologs. In this study, a total of 360 genes were annotated as belonging to the carbohydrate-active enzymes family. Further analysis also predicted 425 cytochromes P450 genes, which can be classified into 41 families. This highly accurate, chromosome-level reference genome of D. rubrovolvata will provide essential genomic information for understanding the molecular mechanism in its fruiting body formation during morphological development and facilitate the exploitation of medicinal compounds produced by this mushroom.
