| Abstract: |
Elaeocarpus petiolatus is an ecologically and economically important species in tropical and subtropical forests. Despite its significance, the lack of genomic resources has hindered research on the genetic diversity and adaptive traits of E. petiolatus. To address this gap, we present a comprehensive chromosome-level genome assembly of E. petiolatus generated using advanced PacBio high-fidelity (HiFi) long-read sequencing and Hi-C technology. The assembly spans 322.45 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 20.58 Mb, indicating that 37.11% of the genome is composed of repetitive elements. We identified 25,295 protein-coding genes, of which 96.74% were functionally annotated. This high-quality genome provides a critical resource for understanding the genetic mechanisms underlying environmental adaptability and biosynthesis of bioactive compounds in E. petiolatus, thereby supporting conservation efforts and sustainable forest management. The assembled genome and associated sequencing data are publicly available, facilitating further evolutionary and functional studies on the Elaeocarpaceae family. |
