Telomere-to-telomere gapless genome assembly of Hebanthe erianthos

Hebanthe erianthos (Poir.) Pedersen is a medicinal species of the family Amaranthaceae. A telomere-to-telomere (T2T) genome assembly was generated using ONT ultra-long reads, Illumina short reads, and Hi-C sequencing data. The final assembly spans 985.85 Mb and consists of 17 gap-free chromosomes, with a contig N50 of 62.65 Mb. Assembly quality assessment yielded a consensus QV of 49.70 and a BUSCO completeness score of 98.1%. The genome contains 71.39% repetitive sequences and 27,068 predicted protein-coding genes, of which 25,985 (96.00%) were functionally annotated. Associated datasets include genome assembly, gene annotation, repeat annotation, non-coding RNA annotation, transcriptome sequencing data, and chromosome interaction data.
