Abstract

Theretra japonica is an important pollinator and agricultural pest in the family Sphingidae with a wide range of host plants. High-quality genomic resources facilitate investigations into behavioral ecology, morphological and physiological adaptations, and the evolution of genomic architecture. However, chromosome-level genome of T. japonica is still lacking. Here we sequenced and assembled the high-quality genome of T. japonica by combining PacBio long reads, Illumina short reads, and Hi-C data. The genome was contained in 95 scaffolds with an accumulated length of 409.55 Mb (BUSCO calculated a genome completeness of 99.2%). The 29 pseudochromosomes had a combined length of 403.77 Mb, with a mapping rate of 98.59%. The genomic characterisation of T. japonica will contribute to further studies for Sphingidae and Lepidoptera.

摘要

日本云纹天蛾是天蛾科的一种重要传粉者和农业害虫，其寄主植物种类广泛。高质量的基因组资源有助于研究行为生态学、形态和生理适应以及基因组结构的进化。然而，日本云纹天蛾的染色体水平基因组仍然缺乏。在这里，我们通过结合 PacBio 长读段、Illumina 短读段和 Hi-C 数据，对日本云纹天蛾进行了测序和组装，得到了高质量的基因组。该基因组包含 95 个组装的 scaffolds，总长度为 409.55 Mb（BUSCO 计算的基因组完整性为 99.2%）。29 条假染色体的总长度为 403.77 Mb，映射率为 98.59%。日本云纹天蛾的基因组特征将有助于进一步研究天蛾科和鳞翅目昆虫。
