## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of Trifolium dubium, a plant in the legume family, as part of a larger genomic initiative.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly of Trifolium dubium, including chromosomal scaffolding and organellar genomes.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 679.1 megabases and is scaffolded into 15 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genomes are 133.86 kb and 182.32 kb in length, while the plastid genome is 126.22 kb.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual
Trifolium dubium (lesser trefoil; Tracheophyta; Magnoliopsida; Fabales; Fabaceae) as part of a collaboration between the Darwin Tree of Life and the European Reference Genome Atlas. The genome sequence is 679.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 15 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The two mitochondrial genomes have lengths of 133.86 kb and 182.32 kb, and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 126.22 kilobases.
