Candidia barbata isolate:CbMS-B010 Genome sequencing and assembly

Candidia barbata (tribe Opsariichthyini, family Xenocyprididae) is a small minnow species endemic to Taiwan. The samples were collected from populations within Masu River, Taiwan. The tribe Opsariichthyini exhibits a wide variation in chromosome numbers, and Candidia barbata plays a crucial role in representing the ancestral chromosomal state within the group.

台湾须鱲（Candidia barbata，隶属于马口鱼族（Opsariichthyini）、鲴科（Xenocyprididae））是一种台湾特有的小型淡水鱼类。本研究的样本采集自中国台湾地区马苏河的野生种群。马口鱼族（Opsariichthyini）的染色体数目存在广泛变异，而台湾须鱲在该类群祖先染色体状态的表征方面发挥着关键作用。
