Abstract
We present a genome assembly of (Sweet violet; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Malpighiales; Violaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 698.62 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.9%) is scaffolded into 10 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial sequence has a length of 482.11 kilobases and the plastid genome assembly has a length of 158.28 kilobases. Gene annotation of this assembly on Ensembl identified 34 902 protein-coding genes. This assembly was generated as part of the Darwin Tree of Life project, which produces reference genomes for eukaryotic species found in Britain and Ireland.
