Reference draft genome of Heliopora coerulea

To examine phylogenetic relationships within the genus Heliopora, we applied Multiplexed ISSR Genotyping by sequencing (MIG-seq) method for >1,000 colonies across the Indo-West Pacific. For discriminating Heliopora genome sequences from symbiont or other genomic DNA, MiSeq [v3–600] was used to sequence 16 G bp of Heliopora genomic DNA extracted from symbiont-free larvae of Heliopora coerulea collected in Japan, which was used in the study Richards et al. (2018). Genome stats: sum=465489301, n=291784, ave=1595.32, largest=357742 (N50=2436, n=46691)
