Abstract
This research work is the first to ever sequence and perform a de novo assembly of the genome of the freshwater angelfish, Pterophyllum scalare . The final genome assembly consisted of 15,486 contigs and was 734.79 Mb in size with an 86.5% BUSCO score. Functional annotation of the genome revealed 24,247 protein-coding sequences related to other fish species. 14,329 (59%) of the identified genes were orthologous to Archocentrus centrarchus , a closely related South American cichlid.
