## TL;DR

This paper reports the genome sequence of the common toadflax, including chromosomal and mitochondrial assemblies.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the first genome assembly for Linaria vulgaris, including chromosomal and organellar sequences.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 760.5 megabases and is scaffolded into six chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- Two mitochondrial genomes of lengths 330.8 and 144.0 kilobases were assembled.
- The plastid genome was assembled and is 156.7 kilobases in length.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a
Linaria vulgaris specimen (common toadflax; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Lamiales; Plantaginaceae). The genome sequence is 760.5 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into six chromosomal pseudomolecules. Two mitochondrial genomes were assembled, which were 330.8 and 144.0 kilobases long. The plastid genome was also assembled and is 156.7 kilobases in length.
