The chromosomal genome sequence of the boulder star coral, Orbicella franksi (Gregory, 1895) (Scleractinia: Merulinidae)

We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Orbicella franksi (boulder star coral; Cnidaria; Anthozoa; Scleractinia; Merulinidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 496.97 megabases. Most of the assembly (95.24%) is scaffolded into 15 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The...
