Abstract
Crustacea is a species-rich subphylum of Arthropoda that contains mostly aquatic species. Here, we established a comprehensive genomic database dedicated to the Crustacea. CRUSTADB represents a significant advancement in crustacean genomics, integrating an extensive array of genomic resources. The database encompasses 33 latest genomes, providing a foundational resource for genetic and genomic studies within this clade. Additionally, it includes an impressive 789 Gb of resequencing data across 10 species within the order Decapoda, 297 transcriptomes from 28 diverse species, and 312 mitochondrial genomes, offering a broad spectrum of genetic information. CRUSTADB is not merely a repository of genomic data; it also offers a suite of user-friendly tools designed for multifaceted integrative and comparative analyses. These tools enable users to visually browse the genomes and access a wide range of detailed information, including genome assembly statistics, genomic variations, gene annotations, expression profiles, gene family dynamics, and mitochondrial genomic data. Thus, CRUSTADB will facilitate a comprehensive understanding of crustacean genomics, serving as an invaluable resource for researchers in the field.
