Ruditapes philippinarum (Manila clam)
This project presents a chromosome-level genome assembly and three-dimensional (3D) genome architecture of the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum), an economically important marine bivalve widely cultured in coastal aquaculture. The genome was assembled using PacBio HiFi sequencing and further scaffolded with Hi-C data, resulting in a high-quality assembly of approximately 1.32 Gb. A total of 187 contigs were anchored into 19 pseudochromosomes, achieving a high chromosome anchoring rate. The assembly exhibits high continuity, with a contig N50 of 21.80 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 68.07 Mb.
