Telomere-to-Telomere genome of Codonopsis pilosula
Codonopsis pilosula (Franch.) Nannf. is a perennial herbaceous species of the family Campanulaceae and one of the most widely used traditional Chinese medicinal plants, valued for its immunomodulatory,anti-tumour,antioxidant,and hypoglycaemic properties.Here,we present the first telomere-to-telomere (T2T) gap-free genome assembly of C. pilosula.By integrating PacBio HiFi (63.20 Gb), Hi-C (232.80 Gb), and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) ultra-long read (92.55 Gb) sequencing data,the genome was assembled into eight gap-free pseudochromosomes spanning 724.47 Mb,with all 16 telomeres successfully identified.
