# The chromosomal genome sequence of the buttercup lucine, Anodontia alba Link, 1807 (Lucinida: Lucinidae) and its associated microbial metagenome sequences

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome and associated microbial sequences of the buttercup lucine, a bivalve mollusk, providing insights into its genetic makeup and symbiotic microbes.

## Contribution

The study provides the first chromosomal genome assembly and high-quality microbial MAGs for the buttercup lucine.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 1,862.85 megabases long, with 99.28% scaffolded into 18 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- Gene annotation identified 12,083 protein-coding genes.
- Three high-quality microbial MAGs were recovered from the metagenome data.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual
Anodontia alba (buttercup lucine; Mollusca; Bivalvia; Lucinida; Lucinidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1 862.85 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.28%) is scaffolded into 18 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 18.48 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly by Ensembl identified 12 083 protein-coding genes. From the metagenome data, we recovered four bins, of which three were high-quality MAGs.
