Abstract
We present a genome assembly from an individual (the common marigold; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Asterales; Asteraceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 1,215.20 megabases. Most of the 1 assembly is scaffolded into 16 chromosomal pseudomolecules, suggesting the individual is an allotetraploid (2 = 4 = 32). The mitochondrial assemblies are 225.50 and 127.82 kilobases in length and the plastid genome assembly is150.47 kilobases long. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 58,402 protein-coding genes.
