The genome sequence of the wood mouse, Apodemus sylvaticus (Linnaeus, 1758) [version 1; peer review: 3 approved]

We present a genome assembly from an individual male Apodemus sylvaticus (the wood mouse; Chordata; Mammalia; Rodentia; Muridae). The genome sequence is 2,889.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 25 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the X and Y sex chromosomes. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 16.31 kilobases in length.
