Chromosome-level genome and characteristic analysis of Platax teira

  • Platax teira has the characteristics of fast growth rate, delicious meat and high nutritional content, and its strange appearance, especially for young fish, makes it an ornamental fish, being one of the important potential fishes for the cage culture development in the South China Sea. Due to the lack of genomic information, most of the functional genes of P. teira have not been explored, which has become an important factor of restricting its genetic breeding. We utilized triple sequencing technology and assembly to obtain a high-quality genome map of P. teira on chromosome level, and obtained the basic biological information of P. teira genome sequence through genome annotation. The results show that the genome size of P. teira was 697.98 Mb, assembling into 24 chromosomes with an assembly rate of 99.26%. P. teira genome contained 177.79 Mb of repetitive sequences, accounting for 25.47% of the total genome and encoding 22 851 genes. Comparative genomic analysis with 11 other fish species reveals that P. teira shared the closest relationship with Cheilinus undulatus, and the differentiation time was about 82.89 Ma. Genes under positive selection in P. teira were enriched in pathways related to ion channels and cardiac function, while the expanded gene families were enriched in pathways related to olfactory transmission and nitrogen metabolism, which reveals its survival, adaptation basis and ecological adaptation strategies in specific environment.
