| Summary: | Abstract Nothapodytes nimmoniana is a plant species belonging to the genus Nothapodytes in the family Icacinaceae. This species holds significant medicinal value due to its camptothecin content. In this study, we present the first chromosome-level genome assembly of N. nimmoniana constructed using NGS, Hi-C, and HiFi sequencing technologies. The assembled genome spans 3.53 Gb across 14 chromosomes, with an N50 length of 248.74 Mb. Genome annotation revealed that repetitive sequences constitute 80.82% of the genome size, and 83,269 protein-coding genes were predicted. Additionally, 4,360,538 bp of non-coding RNA were annotated. This genomic resource provides a foundation for further investigation into camptothecin biosynthesis pathways and plant phylogeny in N. nimmoniana. |
