Abstract:Brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is a socioeconomically important fish species for fisheries, aquaculture and aquatic conservation. We produced a 2.5 Gb reference assembly by combining Hi-C chromosome conformation capture with high-coverage short- and long-read sequencing of a fully homozygous mitotic gynogenic doubled haploid fish, which facilitates assembly of highly complex salmonid genomes. The assembly has a N50 of 50.98 Mb and 88.9% of the total assembled sequence length is anchored into 42 main chrom… Show more
