Assembly

The haploid genome is estimated to be 141.7 Mb and composed of more than 64% repetitive elements. The draft assembly consists of 7794 scaffolds representing 96% of the genome, and is available from the EMBL/Genbank/DDBJ databases under the accession GCA_000372725.1.

Annotation

Annotation for the Emiliania huxleyi genome has been derived from annotation submitted to the EMBL/Genbank/DDBJ databases (as the WGS project AHAL00000000); and enhanced by importing data from additional sources, principally UniProtKB and GOA. Non-coding RNA genes have been annotated using tRNAScan-SE (Lowe, T.M. and Eddy, S.R. 1997) , RFAM (Griffiths-Jones et al 2005), and RNAmmer (Lagesen K.,et al 2007); additional analysis tools have also been applied.
