TL;DR
This paper reports the genome sequence of a conopid fly, including its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA, and identifies thousands of protein-coding genes.
Contribution
The study provides the first genome assembly for Thecophora atra, including chromosomal scaffolding and gene annotation.
Findings
The genome assembly spans 354.2 megabases and includes 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
The mitochondrial genome is 17.3 kilobases long.
Gene annotation identified 30,620 protein-coding genes.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Thecophora atra (a Conopid fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Conopidae). The genome sequence is 354.2 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 17.3 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 30,620 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.
