Abstract

(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.
