The chromosomal genome sequence of the mauve stinger jellyfish, Pelagia noctiluca (Forsskål, 1775) (Semaeostomeae: Pelagiidae)

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: (Mauve Stinger; Cnidaria; Scyphozoa; Semaeostomeae; Pelagiidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 357.08 megabases. Most of the assembly (94.91%) is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 16.7 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly by Ensembl identified 19 573 protein-coding genes.
