Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from an individual Biomphalaria glabrata NIMR strain (bloodfluke planorb; Mollusca; Gastropoda; Planorbidae). The genome sequence spans 850.60 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 18 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 13.67 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 25,327 protein-coding genes.
