Thaleichthys pacificus isolate:New Westminster Genome sequencing and assembly

The Eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) is a small anadromous smelt that return to spawn in major rivers of the Pacific coast of North America. This work represents a long-read whole genome sequencing and chromosome-level reference assemblyfor the species. Sequencing and assembly performed using PacBio sequel read on an individual sampled in the Lower Fraser River (BC). Placement of contigs and scaffolds into chromosomes performed utilizing Hi-C data from an individual sampled in the US.
