Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Lycaena helle (the Violet Copper; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Lycaenidae). The genome sequence is 547.31 megabases in span. The entirety of the genome sequence was assembled into 25 contiguous chromosomal pseudomolecules with no gaps, including the Z and W sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.5 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly identified 20,122 protein coding genes.

LBCs are made up of two pairs of conjugating homologous chromatids. Each chromatid consists of alternatively positioned regions of condensed-inactive chromatin and loosely placed-active side loops, which can be contracted and extended. The loops...
