TL;DR
This paper presents the chromosomal genome sequence of the common sea fan, Gorgonia ventalina, including a detailed assembly of its DNA.
Contribution
The study provides the first chromosomal-level genome assembly for Gorgonia ventalina.
Findings
The genome assembly is 339.18 megabases long.
98.66% of the assembly is organized into 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
The mitochondrial genome is 18.73 kilobases in length.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual Gorgonia ventalina (common sea fan; Cnidaria; Anthozoa; Malacalcyonacea; Gorgoniidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 339.18 megabases. Most of the assembly (98.66%) is scaffolded into 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 18.73 kilobases.
