Abstract
Ephedra sinica is a high-value medicinal plant that produces important phenylpropylamino alkaloids pseudoephedrine and ephedrine. Few genomics resources exist for E. sinica, which has been characterized as a tetraploid with a monoploid genome size of 8.56 Gb. Here we reported a partial genome assembly of E. sinica (12.8 Gb) based on Illumina short-read sequencing at low coverage.
