[0046] Example 1:
[0047] A high-quality genome sequence of the Daiqu group large yellow croaker is obtained by using PacBio SMRT and Hi-C technology, the genome size is 721.26 Mb, contig N50 = 28.48 Mb, scaffold N50 = 31.39 Mb, assembled into 24 chromosomes, the genome mounting rate is 97.86%, the genome sequence has been uploaded to NCBI (NCBI: SRR30870370), and the number of annotated genes is 25147. The specific implementation is as follows:
[0048] High-throughput sequencing and data quality control: The Illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencing technology was used to perform paired-end sequencing on the sample DNA. The adapter sequences in the reads were removed using Trimmomatic-0.39 software, the 5' end of the reads containing non-AGCT bases was removed, the ends of the reads with low sequencing quality (sequencing quality value less than Q20) were trimmed, reads containing N with a proportion of 10% were removed, and small fragments with a length of less than 75 bp after adapter and quality trimming were removed. Finally, 40G of high-quality detection data was obtained. Meanwhile, 75G of high-quality Hi-C data was obtained. The Pacbio SMRT technology was used for sequencing, and the raw sequencing data was processed as follows: filter out Polymerase reads with a length of less than 200 bp; filter out Polymerase reads with a quality of less than 0.80; extract Subreads from Polymerase reads and filter out adapter sequences; filter out Subreads with a length of less than 500 bp. The filtered PacBio Subreads were 32G.
[0049] Genome assembly: The software Hifiasm was used to assemble the third-generation Pacbio SMRT sequencing data, and the genome size of large yellow croaker was 721.26G, and the scaffold N50 was 31.39Mb. The genome mounting rate was 97.86%. According to the sequencing Hi-C data, the software ALLHIC was used to mount the contigs / scaffolds sequence obtained by assembly to the near-chromosome level, and then the juicebox software was used to manually correct according to the strength of chromosome interaction, and finally the chromosome level genome was obtained, and the length of each chromosome is shown in Table 3.

[0052]
[0053] Coding gene analysis: de novo prediction and homologous sequence alignment were combined to predict genes in the genome, and de novo gene prediction was performed by AUGUSTUS v3.2.3 software; homologous alignment prediction was performed using the protein sequence of the reference genome, the protein sequence was quickly aligned to the sample genome sequence (tblastn), the poor alignment results were filtered, and the redundancy was removed, and then Genewise v2.4.1 was run for accurate alignment to determine the coding region and intron region of the gene; the above gene set was integrated by EVidenceModeler v1.1.1 software, and 25147 coding genes of the sample genome were obtained.
[0054] Example 2:
[0055] Based on the genomic information obtained in Example 1, the genomic resequencing of 72 samples of wild populations and 1360 samples of cultured populations of P. major was performed, and the resequencing data was used for variation analysis to obtain large-scale whole genome variation information; high-quality SNP sites with population and individual representation were obtained by filtering and screening, combined with QTL positioning and GWAS analysis to screen SNP sites significantly related to important economic traits, and according to the genome annotation and variation annotation, the determination of the polymorphic site segment was performed, and finally the SNP chip was synthesized at the genome level. The specific implementation is as follows:
[0056] Based on the high-quality reference genome of P. major (NCBI: SRR30870370), the resequencing data of wild populations and cultured populations was used for variation analysis: after the DNA extracted from the tissue was qualified by agarose gel electrophoresis and Nanodrop detection, it was randomly broken into fragments with a length of 350bp by a Covaris crusher. The DNA fragments were end-repaired, poly A-tailed, adapter-ligated, purified, and PCR amplified to complete the whole library preparation. The constructed library was sequenced by illumina NovaSeq 6000, and the paired-end raw data obtained by sequencing was used to remove reads with adapters, reads with a proportion of N greater than 5%, and low-quality reads with a number of bases with a quality value Q<=10 accounting for more than 20% of the entire reads, to obtain high-quality effective data. The sequencing fragments were aligned back to the reference genome using BWA alignment software. According to the alignment results, GATK software was used to analyze the reference genome alignment, variation site screening and filtering of the filtered P. major wild and cultured population resequencing data, and high-quality SNP sites were obtained. ANNOVAR software was used to annotate the SNP detection results.
[0057] QTL mapping to screen trait-associated SNP sites: The genomic sequences of 152 samples of F1 full-sib offspring and parents were determined by genome resequencing technology, and SNP sites were screened by alignment with the reference genome to construct a high-density genetic linkage map. The linkage map contained 390,937 markers, with a map length of 1871.83 cM and was divided into 24 linkage groups. Combined with the phenotype information of the full-sib family resistance to internal white spot disease, 62 trait-associated SNP sites were successfully screened by QTL mapping analysis.
[0058] GWAS to screen trait-associated SNP sites: Genotype information of 1208 samples was obtained by high-throughput genotyping, and 221573 high-quality SNP sites were obtained after filtering. Combined with the phenotype information of resistance to internal white spot disease, 358 trait-associated sites were screened.
[0059] A total of 420 trait-associated SNP sites of resistance to internal white spot disease were screened by QTL mapping and GWAS, and the information of each site is shown in Table 5.

[0066] Chip site design and synthesis and effectiveness verification: Based on the 420 trait-associated SNP sites of resistance to internal white spot disease, 44528 markers were screened according to the basic principle of evenly distributing SNP sites on the genome, and finally 44948 excellent SNP sites were obtained (Table 4) for subsequent probe synthesis. Thus, the P. olivaceus SNP chip for resistance to internal white spot disease can be prepared. The effectiveness of the chip was verified using 30 P. olivaceus samples. Sequencing and data analysis showed that the site detection rate of the sample data was between 98.14% and 99.26%, with an average detection rate of 98.89%, as shown in Table 6. Figure 1
[0067] Example 3:
[0068] Example 3:
[0069] (1) Anti-visceral white spot disease phenotype determination: Pseudomonas plecoglossicida liquid with a 120h semi-lethal dose (1x10 4 CFU / ml) was injected into the abdominal cavity of large yellow croaker (about 30g per tail), and the survival state of individuals was recorded: the median lethal time was used as the dividing line, and the individuals before the median lethal time were recorded as 0, and the rest were recorded as 1. The survival state was used as the anti-visceral white spot disease phenotype for subsequent analysis.
[0070] (2) Obtain DNA samples: Collect fin tissue samples of large yellow croaker, extract genomic DNA from the tissue by phenol-chloroform method or special reagent kit, and detect qualified DNA by agarose gel electrophoresis and Nanodrop. After adjusting the DNA concentration to the working concentration of 10 ng / μL, the SNP chip detection was carried out.
[0071] (3) Genomic chip detection: The developed SNP chip was used for genotype detection of all samples, and the detection process was operated according to the standard detection process of Genotyping By Target Sequencing (GBTS) technology of Shijiazhuang Boruitai Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
[0072] (4) Data analysis: The raw data obtained by detection was quality controlled by FastQ software, and then the sequencing data was aligned to the reference genome sequence of large yellow croaker by BWA software. The standard process of GATK software was used for SNP detection and genotyping.
[0073] The results showed that the population SNP site was between 98.10% and 99.32%, with an average detection rate of 98.98%. The genotyping data was quality controlled: individuals and markers with a deletion rate >10% and MAF <0.05 were deleted. After quality control, 42008 high-quality SNP markers were obtained, which were used for subsequent genomic selection breeding of disease resistance traits. The survival state after artificial infection was used as the large yellow croaker anti-visceral white spot disease phenotype, and the restricted maximum likelihood method (REML) was used to estimate the heritability of disease resistance traits based on the SNP information obtained by large yellow croaker anti-visceral white spot disease whole genome SNP chip genotyping. At the same time, the genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) method was used to predict the individual genomic estimated breeding value (GEBV), and the prediction reliability of GEBV was analyzed. The heritability of large yellow croaker anti-visceral white spot disease traits was calculated to be 0.35±0.05, and the prediction reliability of GEBV was as high as 0.66, as shown in Table 6. The results prove that the large yellow croaker anti-visceral white spot disease whole genome SNP chip has high reliability for genomic selection breeding of disease resistance traits in large yellow croaker.
