The genome sequence of the light-bulb sea squirt, Clavelina lepadiformis (Müller, 1776) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

We present a genome assembly from an individual Clavelina lepadiformis (the light-bulb sea squirt; Chordata; Ascidiacea; Aplousobranchia; Clavelinidae). The genome sequence is 210.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 9 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 14.48 kilobases in length.
