Purple and White Aquilegia vulgaris genome sequence and annotation V2https://doi.org/10.60507/FK2/GKLMOGVieira Salgado de Oliveira, Julie AnneFriedhoff, RonjaKatharina WolffPucker, Boasbonndata2026-01-202026-01-20T15:40:11ZHere we present high-quality genome sequences and annotations of Aquilegia vulgaris (commonly known as columbine), a widespread ornamental plant renowned for its extensive flower color variation. The study uncovers the flavonoid biosynthesis gene repertoire underlying anthocyanin pigmentation in this species. Using ONT long-read sequencing data, highly continuous genome assemblies were generated for both a purple-flowering and a white-flowering A. vulgaris. This data publication contains the genome sequences with corresponding structural annotations.Medicine, Health and Life SciencesEnglishde Oliveira, J. A. V. S., Friedhoff R., Wolff K., Pucker B.
