Arion vulgaris isolate:AV1810 Genome sequencing and assembly

The Spanish slug, Arion vulgaris Moquin-Tandon, 1855, is considered to be among the 100 worst pest species in Europe. Here, we generated a chromosome-level assembly for the Spanish slug A. vulgaris using an integrated sequencing strategy combining 10X genomics, Nanopore, Illumina and Hi-C technologies. The genome assembly size is 1.54 Gb with a contig N50 length of 8.6 Mb. We predicted 32,518 genes and 97% of the genes were functionally annotated. The high-quality genomic data provided here are valuable genetic resources for further A. vulgaris and molluscan studies.

西班牙蛞蝓（Arion vulgaris Moquin-Tandon, 1855）被列为欧洲100种最具危害性的有害生物之一。本研究针对西班牙蛞蝓A. vulgaris，采用整合了10X Genomics、Nanopore、Illumina及Hi-C技术的联合测序策略，构建了染色体级别的基因组组装序列。该基因组组装总长度为1.54 Gb，contig N50长度达8.6 Mb。本研究共预测得到32,518个蛋白编码基因，其中97%的基因获得了功能注释。本研究发布的高质量基因组数据，可为后续A. vulgaris及软体动物相关研究提供宝贵的遗传资源。
