Chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of pawak croaker
In this study, multi-platform sequencing data were generated and used to assemble and annotate the genome of P.pawak at the chromosome-level. The assembled genome size of P.pawak is 613.02 Mbp, which is similar to the estimated genome size (570.32 Mbp) using 21-mer. The scaffold N50 is 27.09 Mbp, and 24 chromosomes were assembled using Hi-C technology with a mounting rate of 99.31%. Genome annotation indicates that 20.06% of the genome is repetitive sequences, and 26,361 protein-coding genes are predicted, of which 25,885 have functional annotations.
