# The genome sequence of the Sycamore Piercer, Pammene aurita (Razowski, 1991)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Sycamore Piercer moth, including its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the first genome assembly of Pammene aurita, including chromosomal scaffolding and mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 1,041.8 megabases and is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 16.7 kilobases long and has been fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Pammene aurita (the Sycamore Piercer; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Tortricidae). The genome sequence is 1,041.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the assembled Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.7 kilobases in length.
