A chromosome-level reference genome assembly and annotation of Serrodes campana
摘要
Serrodes campana (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is an economically important moth distributed in subtropical and tropical Asia, but genomic resources for this species have been lacking. Here, we present a chromosome-level reference genome assembly for S. campana generated using PacBio HiFi long reads, Illumina short reads, Hi-C sequencing, and transcriptomic data from 12 RNA-seq samples. The final assembly spans 627.9 Mb, with a contig N50 of 21.4 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 21.6 Mb, and 99.29% of the assembled sequences were anchored to 31 pseudochromosomes. BUSCO assessment recovered 99.56% complete insect genes, supporting the high completeness of the assembly. We predicted 16,047 protein-coding genes, of which 96.65% were functionally annotated, and identified repetitive elements accounting for 33.79% of the genome. This genome assembly and associated annotation resources provide a foundation for gene annotation, comparative genomics, genome evolution studies, and investigations of host-associated biology in S. campana and related moth species.
