# The genome sequence of the Green Pug moth, Pasiphila rectangulata (Linnaeus, 1758)

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the Green Pug moth, including chromosomal scaffolding and gene annotation.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly and gene annotation for the Green Pug moth.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly spans 582.5 megabases and includes 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- Gene annotation identified 17,153 protein coding genes using Ensembl.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male
Pasiphila rectangulata (the Green Pug; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 582.5 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.74 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 17,153 protein coding genes.
