TL;DR
This paper presents the genome sequence of the Eastern Rock Grayling butterfly, including detailed haplotype and mitochondrial genome assemblies.
Contribution
The study provides a high-quality genome assembly with scaffolded chromosomal pseudomolecules for a female Eastern Rock Grayling.
Findings
The genome assembly includes two haplotypes with lengths of 393.56 Mb and 365.79 Mb.
Haplotype 1 is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including sex chromosomes W and Z.
The mitochondrial genome is assembled with a length of 15.47 kilobases.
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Hipparchia syriaca (Eastern Rock Grayling; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 393.56 megabases and 365.79 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.87%) is scaffolded into 30 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 15.47 kilobases. This work is part of Project Psyche, a collaborative programme generating genomes for European butterflies and moths.
