Genome assembly reveals detailed structure of the Beautiful Pearl in Lepidoptera, suggesting evolutionary insights.
<ns3:p> We present a genome assembly from a male specimen of <ns3:italic>Agrotera nemoralis</ns3:italic> (Beautiful Pearl; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Crambidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 522.79 megabases and 524.82 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.85%) 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 15.32 kilobases. This work is part of Project Psyche, a collaborative programme generating genomes for European butterflies and moths. </ns3:p>
