| Summary: | Abstract Coelomactra antiquata, a significant marine economic shellfish in China, is experiencing a natural population decline due to habitat destruction and overfishing, making the restoration and conservation of its natural resources an urgent priority. This study provides a high - quality chromosome - level genome assembly for C. antiquata, created by PacBio and Hi - C sequencing and resulting in a 19 - chromosome map. The assembly encompasses a genome size of 807.31 Mb, with a contig N50 of 17.35 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 42.90 Mb. A total of 28,070 protein - coding genes were identified, 25,959 of which were functionally annotated. Overall, this study offers a chromosome - level genome for C. antiquata that is highly continuous and complete, providing an indispensable resource for subsequent molecular and genetic studies of this species. |
