Anadara broughtonii

Anadara broughtonii is a species of Ark clam. The species was described by Shrenck in 1867. Originally belonging to the genus Scapharca, the genus has merged with Anadara now. Adult blood clams can reach a shell length of 100 mm and are commercially harvested in China, Japan, and Korea as a source of sashimi. To develop both the scientific research and improve the aquaculture of blood clams, a chromosomal-level genome assembly of the S. broughtonii genome has been sequenced and assembled, producing a 884.5-Mb genome.
