Abstract:
We present a genome assembly from an individual nematode Ostertagia ostertagi (Rhabditida, Trichostrongylidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 407.17 megabases. Most of the assembly sequence (99.3%) was assigned to 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 14.49 kilobases.
