The genome sequence of the Plumed Fan-foot, Polypogon plumigeralis (Hübner, 1825) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: (Plumed Fan-foot; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Erebidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 639.54 megabases and 639.39 megabases. Most of the haplotype 1 sequence (99.54%) is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. Haplotype 2 was assembled to scaffold level. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.98 kilobases. 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.
