To assemble the genome of the marine water flea Diaphanosoma celebensis, a sentinel model for marine environmental monitoring, we constructed a high-quality genome using PromethION and HiSeq 2500 platforms. The total length of the assembled genome was 100.08 Mb, with N50 = 2.56 Mb (benchmarking universal single-copy orthologs, 96.9%) and consisted of 179 scaffolds. A total of 15,427 genes were annotated, and orthologous gene clusters in D. celebensis were analyzed and compared with those of the cladocerans Daphnia magna and Daphnia pulex. In addition, phase I, II, and III detoxification gene families of cytochrome P450s, glutathione S-transferases, and ATP-binding cassette were fully identified and revealed lineage-specific gene loss and/or expansion, suggesting that the evolution of detoxification gene families likely modulates fitness and susceptibility in response to environmental stressors. The study improves our understanding of the detoxification-related gene system and should contribute to future studies of molecular ecotoxicology in cladoceran species and their responses to emerging pollutants.
