A chromosomal-level genome assembly of Araneus marmoreus Schenkel, 1953 (Araneae: Araneidae) and its raw sequencing data of illumina, Pacbio and Hi-C

Here, we present a chromosome-level genome assembly for Araneus marmoreus, generated using a combination of Illumina, PacBio, and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The female specimens of Araneus marmoreus were collected from Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. The cephalothorax of the spiders, excluding the abdomen, was used for Illumina and PacBio sequencing, while leg muscle tissue was utilized for Illumina RNA-seq and Hi-C sequencing. We totally obtained 609.33 Gb clean data, including 149.68 Gb illumina reads (65×), 246.85 Gb Pacbio reads (107×), 204.81 Gb Hi-C reads (86 ×), and 7.99 Gb RNA reads.The assembled genome is 2.39 Gb in size, comprising 13 chromosomes, with a scaffold N50 of 181.8 Mb and a contig N50 of 721.3 kb. The assembly achieved a BUSCO completeness score of 96.2% (n=1,013).
