TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of the Brown garden snail, assembled into 27 chromosomal pseudomolecules as part of a larger project to sequence species in Britain and Ireland.
Contribution
The paper provides the first high-quality reference genome for the Brown garden snail, including a fully assembled mitochondrial genome.
Findings
The genome assembly is 2,908.45 megabases long, with 98.95% scaffolded into 27 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
The mitochondrial genome is 14.04 kilobases in length and has been fully assembled.
The work is part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which aims to sequence eukaryotic species in Britain and Ireland.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual Cornu aspersum (Brown garden snail; Mollusca; Gastropoda; Stylommatophora; Helicidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 2 908.45 megabases. Most of the assembly (98.95%) is scaffolded into 27 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 14.04 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
