Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Euplexia lucipara (the Small Angle Shades; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence is 661.8 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 15.37 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 20,395 protein coding genes.

Although the genome of each species varies greatly from each other, a few sequences are highly conserved. Such conserved...
Gene Duplication and Divergence
The duplicated copies of the gene are called Paralogs. Paralogs with similar sequences and functions form a gene family. Across several species, a large number of gene families are...
