A haplotype-resolved, <i>de novo</i> genome assembly for the wood tiger moth ( <i>Arctia plantaginis</i> ) through trio binning

Abstract

We present the first invertebrate genome to be assembled via trio binning. This assembly is one of the highest quality genomes available for Lepidoptera, supporting trio binning as a potent strategy for assembling heterozygous genomes. Using our assembly, we provide genomic insights into the geographic population structure of A. plantaginis.
