The genome sequence of the meadow brown, Maniola jurtina (Linnaeus, 1758) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Maniola jurtina (the meadow brown; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Nymphalidae). The genome sequence is 402 megabases in span. The complete assembly is scaffolded into 30 chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the W and Z sex chromosome assembled. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl has identified 12,502 protein coding genes.
