# The genome sequence of the Ruddy Darter, Sympetrum sanguineum (Müller, 1764)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Ruddy Darter, a dragonfly species, with detailed haplotype-resolved assemblies.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality, haplotype-resolved genome assembly for Sympetrum sanguineum.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly includes two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,500.53 and 1,304.05 megabases.
- Haplotype 1 is scaffolded into 13 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome.
- Haplotype 2 is scaffolded into 12 autosomes.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of
Sympetrum sanguineum (Ruddy Darter; Arthropoda; Insecta; Odonata; Libellulidae). The haplotype-resolved assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,500.53 megabases and 1,304.05 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 is scaffolded into 13 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome, while haplotype 2 is scaffolded into 12 autosomes.
