## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequence of the hairy rockcress, Arabis hirsuta, including detailed assembly of its chromosomes and organelle genomes.

## Contribution

The study provides a high-quality genome assembly of Arabis hirsuta with two haplotypes and complete organelle genomes.

## Key findings

- The genome assembly includes two haplotypes with total lengths of 582.67 and 576.85 megabases.
- Haplotype 1 is mostly scaffolded into 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules.
- The mitochondrial and plastid genomes are 342.94 and 153.77 kilobases in length, respectively.

## Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a specimen of
Arabis hirsuta (Hairy rockcress; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Brassicales; Brassicaceae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 582.67 megabases and 576.85 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.96%) is scaffolded into 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies have lengths of 342.94 kilobases and 153.77 kilobases, respectively.
