## TL;DR

This paper provides genome sequences for four Danio fish species, offering insights into their genetic makeup.

## Contribution

The study presents new genome assemblies for four Danio species, expanding genomic resources for this group.

## Key findings

- Scaffold-level genome assemblies were generated for Danio albolineatus, Danio choprai, Danio jaintianensis, and Danio tinwini.
- Genome sizes ranged from 1,102.16 Mb to 1,497.36 Mb across the four species.

## Abstract

We present the scaffold-level genome assemblies of four
Danio species, released in 2020:
Danio albolineatus, Danio choprai, Danio jaintianensis and
Danio tinwini (Chordata; Actinopterygii; Cypriniformes; Cyprinidae). Genome sizes range from 1,102.16 Mb for
Danio choprai to 1,497.36 Mb for
Danio tinwini.

## Linked entities
