摘要

The predatory bug Eocanthecona furcellata (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is an important natural enemy of agricultural and forest pests. In this study, we assembled a chromosome-level genome of E. furcellata using a combination of Illumina short-read sequencing, PacBio HiFi long-read sequencing, and Hi-C technology. The assembled genome has a total size of 1140.70 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 154.55 Mb. The genome exhibits a high level of completeness, with 99.7% of conserved genes detected. Repetitive elements account for 64.33% of the genome. A total of 22,534 protein-coding genes were predicted, of which 20,803 were successfully annotated. This high-quality genome assembly provides a valuable resource for future research on the biology and ecological functions of this predatory insect.
