The genome sequence of an ichneumonid wasp, Venturia canescens (Gravenhorst, 1829) (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae).
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Venturia canescens (ichneumonid wasp; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Ichneumonidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 299.96 megabases. Most of the assembly (97.25%) is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled, with a length of 27.35 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 14 281 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.
