A Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of the Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus). [PDF]
AbstractThe spotted scat, Scatophagus argus is a member of the family Scatophagidae found in Indo-Pacific coastal waters. It is an emerging commercial aquaculture species, particularly in East and Southeast Asia. In this study, the first chromosome-level genome of S. argus was constructed using PacBio and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The genome is 572.

Identification, Expression, and Functions of the Somatostatin Gene Family in Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus). [PDF]
Somatostatins (SSTs) are a family of proteins consisting of structurally diverse polypeptides that play important roles in the growth regulation in vertebrates. In the present study, four somatostatin genes (SST1, SST3, SST5, and SST6) were identified and characterized in the spotted scat (Scatophagus argus).

Genome Survey of Male and Female Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus). [PDF]
The spotted scat, Scatophagus argus, is a species of fish that is widely propagated within the Chinese aquaculture industry and therefore has significant economic value. Despite this, studies of its genome are severely lacking. In the present study, a genomic survey of S. argus was conducted using next-generation sequencing (NGS).

Evolution and gene expression of matrix metalloproteinase gene family during gonadal development in Scatophagus argus. [PDF]
During the reproductive cycle of Scatophagus argus (S. argus), their gonads undergo degeneration and re-maturation including the degradation of proteins in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a family of zinc proteases, play a crucial role in ECM degradation.Our aim was to identify the MMP gene family of S.
