Abstract:
The plum fruit moth Grapholita funebrana (Tortricidae, Lepidoptera) is an important pest of many wild and cultivated stone fruits and other plants in the family Rosaceae. Here, we assembled its nuclear and mitochondrial genomes using Illumina, Nanopore, and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The nuclear genome size is 570.9 Mb, with a repeat rate of 51.28%, and a BUCSO completeness of 97.7%. The karyotype for males is 2n = 56. We identified 17,979 protein-coding genes, 5,643 tRNAs, and 94 rRNAs. We also determined the mitochondrial genome of this species and annotated 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, and 2 rRNA. These genomes provide resources to understand the genetics, ecology, and genome evolution of the tortricid moths.
