Abstract
Abalone (family Haliotidae) are an ecologically and economically significant group of marine gastropods that can be found in tropical and temperate waters. To date, only a few Haliotis genomes are available, all belonging to temperate species. Here, we provide the first chromosome-scale abalone genome assembly and the first reference genome of the tropical abalone Haliotis asinina. The combination of PacBio long-read HiFi sequencing and Dovetail's Omni-C sequencing allowed the chromosome-level assembly of this genome, while PacBio Isoform sequencing across five tissue types enabled the construction of high-quality gene models. This assembly resulted in 16 pseudo-chromosomes spanning over 1.12 Gb (98.1% of total scaffolds length), N50 of 67.09 Mb, the longest scaffold length of 105.96 Mb, and a BUSCO completeness score of 97.6%. This study identified 25,422 protein-coding genes and 61,149 transcripts. In an era of climate change and ocean warming, this genome of a heat-tolerant species can be used for comparative genomics with a focus on thermal resistance. This high-quality reference genome of H. asinina is a valuable resource for aquaculture, fisheries, and ecological studies.
