We present a genome assembly from an individual male Gadus morhua (the Atlantic cod; Chordata; Actinopteri; Gadiformes; Gadidae). The genome sequence is 669.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 23 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 23,515 protein coding genes.
