| Description | Journal: Ecology and Evolution Yellow drum (Nibea albiflora) is an important fish species in capture fishery and aquaculture in East Asia. We herein report the first and near‐complete genome assembly of an ultra‐homologous gynogenic female yellow drum using Illumina short sequencing reads. In summary, a total of 154.2 Gb of raw reads were generated via whole‐genome sequencing and were assembled to 565.3 Mb genome with a contig $N_{50}$ size of 50.3 kb and scaffold $N_{50}$ size of 2.2 Mb (BUSCO completeness of 97.7%), accounting for 97.3%–98.6% of the estimated genome size of this fish. We further identified 22,448 genes using combined methods of ab initio prediction, RNAseq annotation, and protein homology searching, of which 21,614 (96.3%) were functionally annotated in NCBI nr, trEMBL, SwissProt, and KOG databases. We also investigated the nucleotide diversity (around 1/390) of aquacultured individuals and found the genetic diversity of the aquacultured population decreased due to inbreeding. Evolutionary analyses illustrated significantly expanded and extracted gene families, such as myosin and sodium: neurotransmitter symporter (SNF), could help explain swimming motility of yellow drum. The presented genome will be an important resource for future studies on population genetics, conservation, understanding of evolutionary history and genetic breeding of the yellow drum and other Nibea species. |
