Abstract:
We present a genome assembly of Aquilegia vulgaris (Columbine; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Ranunculales; Ranunculaceae). The assembly consists of two haplotypes with total lengths of 296.10 megabases and 289.22 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (98.81%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Most of haplotype 2 (94.35%) is scaffolded into 7 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial sequences have lengths of 388.22 and 83.91 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 161.5 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 23 898 protein-coding genes. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
