The genome sequence of an orb-weaver spider, Araneus angulatus Clerck, 1757 (Araneae: Araneidae)

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Araneus angulatus</i> (orb-weaver spider; Arthropoda; Arachnida; Araneae; Araneidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 2 980.91 megabases and 2 941.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (94.74%) is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 14.53 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.

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Araneus angulatus</i> (orb-weaver spider; Arthropoda; Arachnida; Araneae; Araneidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 2 980.91 megabases and 2 941.08 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (94.74%) is scaffolded into 28 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 14.53 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.
