  bibo_abstract:
  - Since the commercialization of brine shrimp (genus Artemia) in the 1950s, this
    lineage, and in particular the model species Artemia franciscana, has been the
    subject of extensive research. However, our understanding of the genetic mechanisms
    underlying various aspects of their reproductive biology, including sex determination,
    are still lacking. This is partly due to the scarcity of genomic resources for
    Artemia species and crustaceans in general. Here, we present a chromosome-level
    genome assembly of Artemia franciscana (Kellogg 1906), from the Great Salt Lake,
    USA. The genome is 1GB, and the majority of the genome (81%) is scaffolded into
    21 linkage groups using a previously published high-density linkage map. We performed
    coverage and FST analyses using male and female genomic and transcriptomic reads
    to quantify the extent of differentiation between the Z and W chromosomes. Additionally,
    we quantified the expression levels in male and female heads and gonads and found
    further evidence for dosage compensation in this species.@eng
