The genome sequence of the flea beetle, Crepidodera aurea (Geoffrey, 1785) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Crepidodera aurea (flea beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Chrysomelidae). The genome sequence is 509.0 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 10 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.69 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 19,944 protein coding genes.
