Abstract

Salvelinus malma, belonging to the Salmonidae family, is a critically endangered species in China. To support genetic research and strengthen the protection of wild fish resources, the first chromosome-level reference genome of S. malma was generated through the integrated technologies of PacBio and Hi-C sequencing. The genome assembly has a total length of 2.52 Gb with contigs assigned to 42 chromosomes. A total of 45,385 protein-coding genes were annotated with excellent 98.8% BUSCOs completeness. The chromosome-level genome of S. malma will serve as a valuable resource for functional genomics research and greatly facilitate the ecological conservation in the future.
