# The genome sequence of the Chequered Fruit-tree Tortrix, Pandemis corylana (Fabricius, 1794)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Chequered Fruit-tree Tortrix, a moth species, including its chromosomal structure and gene content.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly and gene annotation for Pandemis corylana.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 441.6 megabases and includes 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.53 kilobases long and was also assembled.
- Gene annotation identified 19,608 protein-coding genes using Ensembl.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Pandemis corylana (the Chequered Fruit-tree Tortrix; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Tortricidae). The genome sequence is 441.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.53 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 19,608 protein coding genes.
