High-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of redlip mullet(Planiliza haematocheila)

摘要

In the present study,we successfully assembled a high-quality genome of Planiliza haematocheila(redlip mullet)based on Oxford Nanopore long read,single-tube long fragment read(stLFR),and Hi-C chromatin interaction sequencing.The size of the P.haematocheila genome was 652.91 Mb.More than 93.8%of BUSCO genes were detected,and the N50 lengths of contigs and scaffolds reached 7.21 Mb and 28.01 Mb,respectively,thus demonstrating outstanding genome completeness and sequence continuity.A total of 21045 protein-coding genes were predicted in the assembled genome,and 99.77%of those genes were functionally annotated.Comparative genomic and phylogenetic analyses revealed the adaptability of P.haematocheila to complex living environments at the genomic level,highlighting its broad adaptability and resistance to multiple stresses as an important economic fish.The high-quality reference chromosome-level genome of P.haematocheila provides a powerful genomic resource for further systematic study of Mugilidae.
