Popis: Abstract Consisting of trees, climbers and herbs exclusively in the intertidal environments, mangrove forest is one of the most extreme and vulnerable ecosystems of our planet and has long been of great interest for biologists and ecologists. Here, we first assembled the chromosome-scale genome of a climber mangrove plant, Dalbergia candenatensis. The assembled genome size is approximately 474.55 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 48.1 Mb, a complete BUSCO score of 98.4%, and a high LTR Assembly Index value of 21. The genome contained 283.46 Mb (59.74%) repetitive sequences, and 29,554 protein-coding genes were predicted, of which 87.54% were functionally annotated in five databases. The high-quality genome assembly and annotation presented herein provide a valuable genomic resource that will expedite genomic and evolutionary studies of mangrove plants and facilitate the elucidation of molecular mechanisms underlying the salt- and water-logging-tolerance of mangrove plants.
