Description
Haiyang Liu and a team of co-authors present the full genome of the mud carp in a 2024 paper. The fish is a major farmed species in South China and Southeast Asia, prized for hardiness and yield. Yet a lack of genetic information has held back breeding work and deeper study of the species.
Using two modern sequencing methods, the team assembled the genome at chromosome scale. It spans just over one billion DNA letters, with nearly all of it placed on 25 chromosomes. They predict about 25,900 protein-coding genes and rate the assembly highly complete. Over half of the genome is made of repeat elements. The assembly gives breeders and biologists a firm base for future work.
