# The genome sequence of the Dotted Oak Knot-horn moth, Phycita roborella (Denis & Schiffermüller) 1775

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Dotted Oak Knot-horn moth, including its chromosomal and mitochondrial DNA.

## Contribution

The study provides the first genome assembly for Phycita roborella, including sex chromosomes and the mitochondrial genome.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly is 710.50 megabases long and includes 33 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial genome is 15.32 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.
- The Z and W sex chromosomes are scaffolded as part of the genome assembly.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female
Phycita roborella (the Dotted Oak Knot-horn moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Pyralidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 710.50 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 33 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z and W sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.32 kilobases in length.
