Abstract The Yarlung Tsangpo River on the Tibetan Plateau provides a unique natural environment for studying fish evolution and ecology. However, genomes genetic diversity of plateau species have been rarely reported. Schizopygopsis younghusbandi , highly specialized Schizothoracine economically important inhabiting River, is threatened by overfishing biological invasion. Herein, we generated chromosome‐level genome S. whole‐genome resequencing data 59 individuals from six locations river. results showed that divergence time between other primitive was ∼4.2 Mya, coinciding with major phase Neogene uplift. expanded gene families enriched in DNA integration replication, ion binding transport, energy storage, metabolism likely contribute to adaption this species. may diverged Zanda basin during Pliocene epoch, which underwent population reduction possibly due drastic climate change last glacial period. Population analysis indicated ancient might originated upstream before gradually adapting evolve into populations mid‐stream downstream regions River. In conclusion, provide valuable resources evolution, ecology, conservation studies endemic fishes Plateau.
