Genome assembly reports two haplotypes in tub gurnard, suggesting insights for reference genomes in biodiversity.
<ns3:p> We present a genome assembly from an individual <ns3:italic>Chelidonichthys lucerna</ns3:italic> (tub gurnard; Chordata; Actinopteri; Perciformes; Triglidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 649.07 megabases and 651.58 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (96.66%) is scaffolded into 24 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.52 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland. </ns3:p>
