TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of the drosophilid fruit fly Drosophila phalerata, including chromosomal and mitochondrial assemblies and gene annotations.
Contribution
The study provides the first genome assembly for Drosophila phalerata, including annotated protein-coding genes.
Findings
The genome assembly spans 223.9 megabases and is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
The mitochondrial genome is 16.14 kilobases long and has been assembled.
Gene annotation identified 18,973 protein-coding genes using Ensembl.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Drosophila phalerata (drosophilid fruit fly, Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Drosophilidae). The genome sequence is 223.9 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.14 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 18,973 protein coding genes.
Genes, proteins, chemicals, diseases, species, mutations and cell lines named across the full text — each resolved to its canonical identifier and authoritative record.
