Abstract
We present a genome assembly of Rosa agrestis (Small-leaved Sweet-briar; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Rosales; Rosaceae). The chromosome complement (2 n = 5 x = 35) is represented across two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,939.70 megabases and 450.00 megabases. Most of the haplotype 1 assembly (99.34%) was scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Most of haplotype 2 (97.6%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Together, the two assemblies represent all 35 chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome assembly has a length of 271.19 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 156.55 kilobases. Gene annotation of the haplotype 1 assembly by Ensembl identified 83,865 protein-coding genes. 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.
