Genome assembly reveals the structure of Calluna vulgaris, indicating insights for eukaryotic reference genomes.
<ns5:p> We present a genome assembly of <ns5:italic>Calluna vulgaris</ns5:italic> (Heather; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Ericales; Ericaceae). The assembly consists of two haplotypes with total lengths of 521.83 megabases and 520.42 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (97.25%) is scaffolded into 8 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Most of haplotype 2 (98.57%) is scaffolded into 8 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 440.94 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 208.47 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. </ns5:p>
