Abstract excerpt
The sleepy cod (Oxyeleotris lineolata Steindachner 1867) is a valuable freshwater teleost with male-biased growth dimorphism, making sex control breeding vital for aquaculture. We generated a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly (⁓985.07 Mb) using PacBio HiFi and Hi-C sequencing, with 99.31% sequences anchored to 23 chromosomes (contig N50: 14.73 Mb; scaffold N50: 42.32 Mb). BUSCO assessment showed 98.1%...
