Anadara broughtonii is a species of Ark clam.
[1] Adult blood clams can reach a shell length of 100 mm and are commercially harvested in China, Japan, and Korea as a source of sashimi.
To develop both the scientific research and improve the aquaculture of blood clams, a chromosomal-level genome assembly of the S. broughtonii genome has been sequenced and assembled, producing a 884.5-Mb genome.
[4] The species is distributed in the Far East, from Russia down to Korea, Mainland China, Japan and Taiwan.
[2][3] The clam is eaten in Japan as sushi.
