The genome sequence of the marsh cinquefoil, Comarum palustre L., also known as Potentilla palustris (L.) Scop. (Rosaceae)

<ns3:p>We present a genome assembly from an individual <ns3:italic>Comarum palustre</ns3:italic> (the marsh cinquefoil; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Rosales; Rosaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 528.90 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules suggesting the individual is an allohexaploid (2<ns3:italic>n</ns3:italic> = 6<ns3:italic>x</ns3:italic> = 42). The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies have lengths of 362.32 kilobases and 154.29 kilobases, respectively. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 37,459 protein-coding genes.</ns3:p>
