Genome Report: Pseudomolecule-scale genome assemblies of Drepanocaryum sewerzowii and Marmoritis complanata

The Nepetoideae, a subfamily of Lamiaceae (mint family), is rich in aromatic plants, many of which are sought after for their use as flavours and fragrances or for their medicinal properties. Here we present genome assemblies for two species in Nepetiodeae: Drepanocaruym sewerzowii and Marmoritis complanata. Both assemblies were generated using Oxford Nanopore Q20+ reads with contigs anchored to nine pseudomolecules that resulted in 335 Mb and 305 Mb assemblies, respectively, and BUSCO scores above 95% for both the assembly and annotation. We furthermore provide a species tree for the Lamiaceae using only genome derived gene models, complementing existing transcriptome and marker-based phylogenies.
