The genome sequence of the marsh cinquefoil, Comarum palustre L., also known as Potentilla palustris (L.) Scop. (Rosaceae) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved].

We present a genome assembly from an individual (the marsh cinquefoil; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Rosales; Rosaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 528.90 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 21 chromosomal pseudomolecules suggesting the individual is an allohexaploid (2 = 6 = 42). The mitochondrial and plastid genome assemblies have lengths of 362.32 kilobases and 154.29 kilobases, respectively. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 37,459 protein-coding genes.
