Genome assembly reveals haplotype structure in Mallow Seed Moth, suggesting insights into eukaryotic genomes.
<ns5:p> We present a genome assembly from an individual male <ns5:italic>Platyedra subcinerea</ns5:italic> (Mallow Seed Moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Gelechiidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 555.70 megabases and 555.31 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.98%) is scaffolded into 30 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 15.25 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland. </ns5:p>
