Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of Delphinus delphis (short-beaked common dolphin; Chordata; Mammalia; Artiodactyla; Delphinidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 2,663.52 megabases. Most of the assembly (88.76%) is scaffolded into 23 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.39 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly at Ensembl identified 17,797 protein-coding genes.
