# The genome sequence of the Spruce-seed moth, Cydia strobilella (Linnaeus, 1758)

## TL;DR

This paper provides the genome sequence of the spruce-seed moth, including detailed gene annotations and chromosomal scaffolding.

## Contribution

The study presents a high-quality genome assembly and gene annotation for Cydia strobilella, including chromosomal pseudomolecules and mitochondrial DNA.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 542.6 megabases in size and includes 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- Gene annotation identified 13,058 protein-coding genes.
- The mitochondrial genome is 16.78 kilobases long and was fully assembled.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Cydia strobilella (the spruce-seed moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Tortricidae). The genome sequence is 542.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.78 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 13,058 protein coding genes.
