The genome sequence of Opomyza germinationis (Linnaeus, 1758) (Diptera: Opomyzidae)

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Opomyza germinationis (Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Opomyzidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 315.94 megabases and 151.40 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (75.22%) is scaffolded into 4 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. Most of haplotype 2 (74.88%) is scaffolded into 3 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.8 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Opomyza germinationis (Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Opomyzidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 315.94 megabases and 151.40 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (75.22%) is scaffolded into 4 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. Most of haplotype 2 (74.88%) is scaffolded into 3 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 15.8 kilobases. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
