A chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation of Cercis chuniana (Fabaceae) (PRJCA029422)
we present a chromosome-level genome of Cercis chuniana by combining Illumina short reads, PacBio HiFi long reads, and Hi-C data. The final genome size is 355.53 Mb, consisting of 12 contigs with a N50 of 42.34 Mb. Significantly, 344.24 Mb, corresponding to 96.82% of the genome, was anchored to seven chromosomes. The assembly comprises 24.83% repetitive sequences, including 19.32% long terminal repeat. Additionally, a total of 33,837 protein-coding genes was predicted in the C. chuniana genome, with 32,709 (96.67%) of the genes were annotated.
