About the Pufferfish genome

Assembly

pufferfishThis site presents version 4 of the Fugu genome, released in June 2005 by the International Fugu Genome Consortium. Takifugu rubripes has a very compact genome, with less than 15% consisting of dispersed repetitive sequence, which makes it ideal for gene discovery.

The latest assembly includes 7,213 scaffolds, constituting 390 Mb of the genome. 90% of the genome is on 1118 scaffolds. 74 scaffolds are larger than 1 Mb each and the largest scaffold is 7 Mb. Please refer to the Fugu Project's Webpage for more details of the sequencing effort.

Annotation

Annotaion of this genome is also carried out by the Fugu Genome Project. A total of 22,008 gene loci have been predicted in this assembly.
