The genome sequence of the Rose Chafer, Cetonia aurata (Linnaeus, 1758)

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Cetonia aurata (the Rose Chafer; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae). The genome sequence is 479.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mit...

Summary:We present a genome assembly from an individual male Cetonia aurata (the Rose Chafer; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae). The genome sequence is 479.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 20.85 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 12,621 protein coding genes.
