Abstract
Mylabris sibirica is a hypermetamorphic insect that primarily feeds on oilseed rape during the adult stage. However, the limited availability of genomic resources hinders our understanding of the gene function, medical use, and ecological adaptation in M. sibirica. Here, a high-quality chromosome-level genome of M. sibirica was generated by PacBio, Illumina, and Hi-C technologies. Its genome size was 138.45 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 13.84 Mb and 99.85% (138.25 Mb) of the assembly anchors onto 10 pseudo-chromosomes. BUSCO analysis showed this genome assembly had a high-level completeness of 100% (n = 1,367), containing 1,358 (99.4%) single-copy BUSCOs and 8 (0.6%) duplicated BUSCOs. In addition, a total of 11,687 protein-coding genes and 35.46% (49.10 Mb) repetitive elements were identified. The high-quality genome assembly offers valuable genomic resources for exploring gene function, medical use, and ecology.
期刊介绍:
Scientific Data is an open-access journal focused on data, publishing descriptions of research datasets and articles on data sharing across natural sciences, medicine, engineering, and social sciences. Its goal is to enhance the sharing and reuse of scientific data, encourage broader data sharing, and acknowledge those who share their data.
The journal primarily publishes Data Descriptors, which offer detailed descriptions of research datasets, including data collection methods and technical analyses validating data quality. These descriptors aim to facilitate data reuse rather than testing hypotheses or presenting new interpretations, methods, or in-depth analyses.
