Margolisiella madlensis Genome Annotation and Phylogenomic Analysis Files

41 Mb of draft nuclear genome assembly for the apicomplexan parasite Margolisiella madlensis, infecting the bay scallop Argopecten irradians. The dataset includes structural annotation for 11,867 protein-coding genes, functional annotation results, and phylogenomic files for evolutionary placement. Denis Grouzdev published this data on figshare in May 2026 to accompany the first genome descriptor for the Marosporida class.

Use Cases

• Comparative genomics of apicomplexan parasites based on the 11,867 annotated protein-coding genes.
• Phylogenetic placement of Margolisiella madlensis within alveolates using the provided phylogenomic analysis files.
• Functional characterization of parasite genes using the InterProScan and eggNOG-mapper annotation outputs.
• Analysis of genome structure and repetitive elements based on the RepeatMasker outputs and BUSCO completeness summaries.

Strengths

• Includes detailed structural annotation for 11,867 protein-coding genes, 14,385 transcripts, and 106 structural RNA genes.
• Provides multiple derived analysis outputs (functional annotation, repeat annotation, phylogenomic files) for comprehensive reuse.
• Genome assembly metrics are explicitly stated: 41 Mb across 6,697 scaffolds with 33.7% GC content.
• Links to raw sequencing data and assembly under the public NCBI BioProject PRJNA1404218.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain analyses.
• The 59.6 MB size suggests the dataset is derived summary outputs, not the raw genomic sequences.
