Genome assembly identifies 18,481 protein-coding genes in Neckera pumila, highlighting eukaryotic biodiversity in Britain and Ireland.
<ns5:p> We present a genome assembly of <ns5:italic>Neckera pumila</ns5:italic> (Dwarf Neckera; Streptophyta; Bryopsida; Hypnales; Neckeraceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 339.34 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.97%) is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 103.98 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 124.88 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 18 481 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. </ns5:p>
