Murray Cod Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly and Annotation

Yuanyuan Chu published a chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of Maccullochella peelii (Murray cod) on figshare in May 2026. The dataset includes genome sequence, gene models, and protein predictions in FASTA, GFF, and FAA formats. The total size is 1.5 GB.

Use Cases

• Comparative genomics analysis based on the chromosome-level genome assembly
• Gene annotation and functional prediction based on the provided gene models and protein predictions
• Reference genome construction for population genetics studies of Murray cod

Strengths

• Chromosome-level assembly suggests high contiguity and completeness
• Includes multiple annotation files (gene models and protein predictions) for functional analysis
• Generated using PacBio HiFi and Hi-C technologies, which typically produce high-quality long-read data

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
