To be more specific, for this study, in collaboration with the Chinese Academy of Science, the genome that has been sequenced is that of the Eptatretus burgeri, which lives in the Pacific, on the coasts of East Asia. To achieve this, the researchers generated data up to 400 times the size of its genome, using advanced techniques –Hi-C– of chromosomal proximity and managing to assemble it at chromosome level.
