Data from: Gene modelling and annotation for the Hawaiian bobtail squid, Euprymna scolopes

<p>Coleoid cephalopods possess numerous complex, species-specific morphological and behavioural adaptations, e.g., a uniquely structured nervous system that is the largest among the invertebrates. The Hawaiian bobtail squid Euprymna scolopes is one of the most established cephalopod species. With its recent publication of the chromosomal-scale genome assembly and regulatory genomic data, it also emerges as a key model for cephalopod gene regulation and evolution. However, the latest genome assembly has been lacking a native gene model set. Our manuscript describes the generation of new long-read transcriptomic data and, combined with a plethora of available transcriptomic datasets, a new reference annotation for <em>E. scolopes</em>. </p>
