Chromosome-level reference genome assembly for the protected resource plant, Zenia insignis
摘要
Zenia insignis Chun, from the subfamily Dialioideae of the family Fabaceae, is a tree species of significant economic and ecological values. It is a near threatened species as per the IUCN Red List. In this study, we generated a reference genome for Z. insignis, with a contig N50 of 6.02 Mb, a total length of 352.84 Mb, and 97.71% of the sequences assembled into 14 pseudo-chromosomes. The BUSCO assessment score for completeness is 97.30%, and the LAI index assessment score for continuity is 14.57. The present study contributes to provide a reference genome for the subfamily Dialioideae. The reference genome will provide a valuable resource for the phylogenomic studies of the family Fabaceae and facilitate further research on Z. insignis.
