Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of <i>Protosalanx chinensis</i> and Response to Air Exposure Stress

<i>Protosalanx chinensis</i> is a suitable particular species for genetic studies on nearly scaleless skin, transparency and high sensitivity to hypoxia stress. Here, we generated a high-quality chromosome-level de novo assembly of <i>P. chinensis</i>. The final de novo assem...

description <i>Protosalanx chinensis</i> is a suitable particular species for genetic studies on nearly scaleless skin, transparency and high sensitivity to hypoxia stress. Here, we generated a high-quality chromosome-level de novo assembly of <i>P. chinensis</i>. The final de novo assembly yielded 379.47 Mb with 28 pseudo-chromosomes and a scaffold N50 length of 14.52 Mb. In total, 21,074 protein-coding genes were predicted. <i>P. chinensis</i>, <i>Esox lucius</i> and <i>Hypomesus transpacificus</i> had formed a clade, which diverged about 115.5 million years ago. In the air exposure stress experiment, we found that some genes play an essential role during <i>P. chinensis</i> hypoxia, such as <i>bhlh</i>, <i>Cry1</i>, <i>Clock</i>, <i>Arntl</i> and <i>Rorb</i> in the circadian rhythm pathway. These genomic data offer a crucial foundation for <i>P. chinensis</i> ecology and adaptation studies, as well as a deeper understanding of the response to air exposure stress.
