The genome sequence of the Toadflax Pug, Eupithecia linariata ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Eupithecia linariata (Toadflax Pug; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 364.44 megabases and 364.02 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.62%) is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.44 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 12 684 protein-coding genes. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
