The genome sequence of Sphagnum tenellum (Brid.) Bory, 1819 (Sphagnales: Sphagnaceae)

<ns5:p> We present a genome assembly of <ns5:italic>Sphagnum tenellum</ns5:italic> (soft bog-moss; Streptophyta; Sphagnopsida; Sphagnales; Sphagnaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 386.16 megabases. Most of the assembly (98.04%) is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 141.31 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 140.16 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>
