Telomere-to-telomere haplotype-resolved genome assembly and annotation of a female oyster pompano (<i>Trachinotus anak</i>)

We report a telomere-to-telomere (T2T), haplotype-resolved genome assembly of a female oyster pompano (<i>Trachinotus anak</i>), an important marine aquaculture species. HiFi, ONT ultra-long and Hi-C sequencing data were used to generate two gap-free chromosome-level haplotypes with complete telomere coverage. This assembly provides a valuable genomic resource for studying sex determination, adaptive evolution, and molecular breeding in <i>T. anak </i>and related Carangidae species.
