The genome sequence of Water Lobelia, Lobelia dortmanna L., 1753 (Asterales: Campanulaceae)

We present a genome assembly of Lobelia dortmanna (Water Lobelia; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Asterales; Campanulaceae). The assembly consists of two haplotypes with total lengths of 780.10 megabases and 756.83 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.63%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 496.36 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 163.59 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 of Lobelia dortmanna (Water Lobelia; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Asterales; Campanulaceae). The assembly consists of two haplotypes with total lengths of 780.10 megabases and 756.83 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.63%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 496.36 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 163.59 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.
