Biological invasion is a major global problem, leading to the loss of biodiversity and species extinction, and causing huge economic losses to countries. Obolodiplosis robiniae is a major invasive forest pest that has caused economic losses in Asia and Europe. Here, the chromosome- level genome of O. robiniae was assembled using the PacBio platform and Hi-C technology. A contig-level genome with a length of 199.49 Mb and a contig N50 of 4.66 Mb was assembled. Approximately 98.05% of contigs were successfully anchored to four chromosomes using Hi-C assisted genome assembly. The genome integrity was assessed to be 90.3% based on BUSCOs analysis. The high-quality genome provides valuable data for the study of invasive species, and a foundation for the understanding the biology and ecology of O. robiniae.
生物入侵是一个全球性的重大问题，导致生物多样性丧失和物种灭绝，并给各国造成巨大的经济损失。苹果蠹蛾是一种主要的入侵性森林害虫，已在亚洲和欧洲造成经济损失。在这里，使用 PacBio 平台和 Hi-C 技术对苹果蠹蛾的染色体水平基因组进行了组装。组装得到的基因组序列总长度为 199.49 Mb，contig N50 为 4.66 Mb。使用 Hi-C 辅助基因组组装，大约 98.05%的 contigs 成功锚定到四条染色体上。基于 BUSCOs 分析，基因组完整性评估为 90.3%。高质量的基因组为入侵物种的研究提供了有价值的数据，并为了解苹果蠹蛾的生物学和生态学奠定了基础。
