Abstract

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Brindled Ochre moth, Dasypolia templi (Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 855.30 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.37 kilobases in length.

Keywords: Brindled Ochre moth; Dasypolia templi; Lepidoptera; chromosomal; genome sequence.

Figure 2.. Genome assembly of Dasypolia templi, ilDasTemp1.1: metrics.
The BlobToolKit snail plot shows N50 metrics and BUSCO gene completeness. The main plot is divided into 1,000 size-ordered bins around the circumference with each bin representing 0.1% of the 855,285,605 bp assembly. The distribution of scaffold lengths is shown in dark grey with the plot radius scaled to the longest scaffold present in the assembly (37,498,354 bp, shown in red). Orange and pale-orange arcs show the N50 and N90 scaffold lengths (29,373,807 and 19,078,010 bp), respectively. The pale grey spiral shows the cumulative scaffold count on a log scale with white scale lines showing successive orders of magnitude. The blue and pale-blue area around the outside of the plot shows the distribution of GC, AT and N percentages in the same bins as the inner plot. A summary of complete, fragmented, duplicated and missing BUSCO genes in the lepidoptera_odb10 set is shown in the top right. An interactive version of this figure is available at https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/view/CAUVWP01/dataset/CAUVWP01/snail.

Figure 3.. Genome assembly of Dasypolia templi, ilDasTemp1.1: BlobToolKit GC-coverage plot.
Base coverage on the vertical axis is plotted against GC content on the horizontal axis. Sequences are coloured by phylum. Circles are sized in proportion to sequence length. Histograms show the distribution of sequence length sum along each axis. An interactive version of this figure is available at https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/view/CAUVWP01/dataset/CAUVWP01/blob.

Figure 4.. Genome assembly of Dasypolia templi ilDasTemp1.1: BlobToolKit cumulative sequence plot.
The grey line shows cumulative length for all sequences. Coloured lines show cumulative lengths of sequences assigned to each phylum using the buscogenes taxrule. An interactive version of this figure is available at https://blobtoolkit.genomehubs.org/view/CAUVWP01/dataset/CAUVWP01/cumulative.
