摘要

Rosa laevigata Michx., an endemic perennial herbaceous plant in China, possesses significant medicinal value in traditional herbal practices. However, the absence of a reference genome has hindered its development and utilization. In this study, we present a chromosome-level de novo genome assembly of two haplotypes (Hap1 and Hap2) of R. laevigata by integration of Hifi long reads, BGI short reads, and Hi-C reads. The assembled Hap1 genome spans 493 Mb, Hap2 genome spans 479 Mb, and both of them were assigned to 7 chromosomes each. The mapping rate of BGI short reads to the two haplotypes genome is approximately 99.26% and 99.23%, and BUSCO assessment reveals that 98.6% and 98.7% of the genes are complete. Furthermore, we predicted 43,480 and 41,251 protein-coding genes in two haplotype genomes, respectively. The chromosome-level genome of R. laevigata enhances the genetic resources available for Rosa species and lays the groundwork for subsequent medicinal development.
