Atlantic salmon - European origin ALTA assembly and gene annotation

Assembly

The Ssal_ALTA assembly was submitted by NORWEGIAN UNIVERSITY OF LIFE SCIENCES and last updated on 2022-05-12. The assembly is on the chromosome level, consisting of 4067 contigs assembled into 4042 scaffolds. The N50 size is the length such that 50% of the assembled genome lies in blocks of the N50 size or longer. The N50 length for the contigs is 19218354 while the scaffold N50 is 19218354.

Gene annotation

Genome annotation was generated using the Ensembl vertebrate annotation pipeline.

In accordance with the Fort Lauderdale Agreement, please check the publication status of the genome/assembly before publishing any genome-wide analyses using these data.
