TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of the Crepuscular Burnet moth, including detailed assemblies of its chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA.
Contribution
The novel contribution is the first genome assembly of Zygaena carniolica, including haplotype-specific and sex chromosome scaffolding.
Findings
The genome assembly includes two haplotypes with lengths of 353.39 and 323.68 megabases.
Haplotype 1 is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including W and Z sex chromosomes.
The mitochondrial genome is assembled with a length of 15.56 kilobases.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Zygaena carniolica (Crepuscular Burnet; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Zygaenidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 353.39 megabases and 323.68 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.94%) is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.56 kilobases.
