Project name: Protopterus annectens

Description: Lungfish are the closest extant species to tetrapods and preserve ancestral traits linked with the water-to-land transition. In this study, we successfully obtained a chromosome-level genome assembly with a high level of completeness and continuity for the African lungfish.
