Overview

Genome assembly reveals two haplotypes of the muscid fly Hydrotaea similis, suggesting biodiversity insights in Britain and Ireland.

Key Points

  • To present the genome assembly of the muscid fly Hydrotaea similis, providing insights into its genetic structure.
  • Genome was assembled from an individual female Hydrotaea similis
  • Includes two haplotypes with total lengths of 884.66 megabases and 852.78 megabases
  • The mitochondrial genome was also assembled.
  • Haplotype 1 comprises 90.83% of the assembly scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules
  • Haplotype 2 is assembled to scaffold level
  • The mitochondrial genome length is 20.27 kilobases.
