The genome sequence of the Vestal Cuckoo Bee, Bombus vestalis (Geoffroy, 1785) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

We present a genome assembly from a haploid male specimen of Bombus vestalis (Vestal Cuckoo Bee; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Apidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 280.01 megabases. Most of the assembly (91.96%) is scaffolded into 25 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial g...

description We present a genome assembly from a haploid male specimen of Bombus vestalis (Vestal Cuckoo Bee; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Apidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 280.01 megabases. Most of the assembly (91.96%) is scaffolded into 25 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 24.37 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 11,600 protein-coding genes.
