The Genome of the Mustard Hill Coral, <i>Porites astreoides</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Coral reefs are threatened both locally and globally by anthropogenic impacts, which to date have contributed to substantial declines in coral cover worldwide. However, some corals are more resilient to these environmental changes and therefore have increased relative abundance on local scales and may represent prominent members shaping future reef communities. Here, we provide the first draft reference genome for one such reef-building coral, the mustard hill coral, Porites astreoides . This reference genome was generated from a sample collected in Bermuda, with DNA sequenced via Pacific Biosciences HiFi long-read technology to provide an initial draft reference genome assembly. Assembly of the PacBio reads with FALCON UnZip resulted in a 678 Mbp assembly with 3,051 contigs with an N50 of 412,256. The genome BUSCO completeness analysis resulted in 90.9% of the metazoan gene set. An ab initio transcriptome was also produced with 64,636 gene models with a transcriptome BUSCO completeness analysis of 77.5% when compared to the metazoan gene set. The function annotation was obtained through a hierarchical approach of SwissProt, TrEMBL, and NCBI nr database of which 86.6% of proteins were annotated. Through our ab initio gene prediction for structural annotation and generation of a functional annotation for the P. astreoides draft genome assembly, we provide valuable resources for improving biological knowledge, which can facilitate comparative genomic analyses for corals, and enhance our capacity to test for the molecular underpinnings of adaptation and acclimatization to support evidence-based restoration and human assisted evolution of corals.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
