chromosome-scale genome sequence of Champsocephalus gunnari
The white-blooded Antarctic icefish is a representative organism that has adapted to the stenothermal conditions of the Southern Ocean by losing the hemoglobin gene. To compensate for inefficient oxygen transport, adaptations such as increased heart size, greater blood volume, and reduced hematocrit density enhance the amount of dissolved oxygen and the velocity of blood flow. To find genetic factors crucial for these adaptations to extreme cold and oxygen-rich marine environments, we sequenced the genome of Champsocephalus gunnari.
