The genome sequence of the Streak, Chesias legatella (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Chesias legatella (the Streak; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Geometridae). The genome sequence is 310.3 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 20.1 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 15,520 protein-coding genes.
