Hilsa shad (Tenualosa ilisha), is a popular fish of Bangladesh belonging to the Clupeidae family. An anadromous species, like the salmon and many other migratory fish, it is a unique species that lives in the sea and travels to freshwater rivers for spawning. During its entire life, Tenualosa ilisha migrates both from sea to freshwater and vice versa.
The genome of Tenualosa ilisha collected from the river Padma of Rajshahi, Bangladesh has been sequenced and its de novo hybrid assembly and structural annotations are being reported here. Illumina and PacBio sequencing platforms were used for high depth sequencing and the draft genome assembly was found to be 816 MB with N50 size of 188 kb. MAKER gene annotation tool predicted 31,254 gene models. Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs refer 95% completeness of the assembled genome.
虱目鱼（Tenualosa ilisha）是孟加拉国一种广受欢迎的鱼类，属于鲱科。作为一种溯河洄游鱼类，与鲑鱼和许多其他洄游鱼类一样，它是一种独特的物种，生活在海洋中，洄游到淡水河流中产卵。在其整个生命周期中，虱目鱼在海洋和淡水之间往返洄游。
已对从孟加拉国拉杰沙希的帕德玛河采集的虱目鱼基因组进行了测序，并在此报告其从头混合组装和结构注释。使用Illumina和PacBio测序平台进行高深度测序，发现基因组草图组装大小为816MB，N50大小为188kb。MAKER基因注释工具预测了31254个基因模型。通用单拷贝直系同源基因基准测试表明组装基因组的完整性为95%。
