Genome assembly identifies 27 chromosomal pseudomolecules in Cornu aspersum, suggesting insights into gastropod genetics.
<ns3:p>We present a genome assembly from an individual <ns3:italic>Cornu aspersum</ns3:italic> (Brown garden snail; Mollusca; Gastropoda; Stylommatophora; Helicidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 2 908.45 megabases. Most of the assembly (98.95%) is scaffolded into 27 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 14.04 kilobases. 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.</ns3:p>
