The genome sequence of Acaena ovalifolia Ruiz & Pav., 1798 (Rosales: Rosaceae)

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: (Two-spined Acaena; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Rosales; Rosaceae). The assembly consists of two haplotypes with total lengths of 687.12 megabases and 687.19 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (99.59%) is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Most of haplotype 2 (99.12%) is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 365.03 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 156.05 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 51 813 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.
