The genome sequence of the White-point, Mythimna albipuncta (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Mythimna albipuncta (the White-point; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence is 698.6 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 15.38 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 13,679 protein coding genes.
