For the first time, the complete genome assembly of the dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus), a tropical cosmopolitan species with commercial fishing importance was sequenced. Using a combination of Illumina and Nanopore sequencing technologies, a draft genome of 497.8 Mb was assembled into 6,044 contigs, with an N50 of 200.9 kb and a BUSCO genome completeness score of 89%. This high-quality genome assembly provides a valuable resource to study adaptive evolutionary processes and supports conservation and management strategies for this ecologically and economically significant species.
首次对热带广布种且具有商业捕捞重要性的鲯鳅（Coryphaena hippurus）进行了全基因组测序。通过结合Illumina和Nanopore测序技术，组装出了一个大小为497.8 Mb的基因组草图，该草图由6,044个重叠群组成，N50为200.9 kb，BUSCO基因组完整性评分为89%。这种高质量的基因组组装为研究适应性进化过程提供了宝贵资源，并为保护和管理这种具有生态和经济重要性的物种的策略提供了支持。
