Draft genomes of two Atlantic bay scallop subspecies Argopecten irradians irradians and A. i. concentricus.

ABSTRACT: The two subspecies of Atlantic bay scallop (Argopecten irradians), A. i. irradians and A. i. concentricus, are economically important aquacultural species in northern and southern China. Here, we performed the whole-genome sequencing, assembly, and gene annotation and produced draft genomes for both subspecies. In total, 253.17 and 272.97 gigabases (Gb) of raw reads were generated from Illumina Hiseq and PacBio platforms for A. i. irradians and A. i. concentricus, respectively. Draft genomes of 835.7 Mb and 874.82 Mb were assembled for the two subspecies, accounting for 83.9% and 89.79% of the estimated sizes of their corresponding genomes, respectively. The contig N50 and scaffold N50 were 78.54 kb and 1.53 Mb for the A. i. irradians genome, and those for the A. i. concentricus genome wer
