Olga Sivell, Liam M. Crowley, Arka Mukherjee, Antonio Ricarte
TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of the hoverfly Merodon equestris, including a detailed assembly of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.
Contribution
The novel contribution is the first genome assembly for Merodon equestris, including chromosomal scaffolding and mitochondrial genome.
Findings
The genome assembly spans 873.0 megabases and is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
The mitochondrial genome is 15.95 kilobases in length.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Merodon equestris (hoverfly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Syrphidae). The genome sequence is 873.0 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.95 kilobases in length.
