The genome sequence of the virgin bagworm, <i>Luffia ferchaultella</i> (Stephens, 1850)
Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual female <i>Luffia ferchaultella</i> (the Virgin Bagworm; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Psychidae). The genome sequence spans 645.30 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 15.37 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 12,416 protein-coding genes.
