Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Plutella xylostella (the Diamondback Moth; Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Plutellidae). The genome sequence is 323.3 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the Z sex chromosome. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 35.12 kilobases in length. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 17,190 protein coding genes.
