Earlgrey Annotations: Repetitive DNA for Chromosome-Level Beetle Genomes

2.3 GB of repeat annotation datasets generated with the Earl Grey tool for Coleoptera (beetle) genome assemblies. These annotations were used to characterize repetitive genome content in comparative genomics analyses. The dataset was authored by Dwayne Tally and last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Characterizing repetitive genome content based on annotations for chromosome-level assemblies.
• Performing comparative genomics analyses across Coleoptera species based on repeat element data.
• Training or benchmarking repeat annotation tools using a curated dataset from the Earl Grey pipeline.

Strengths

• Dataset size is 2.3 GB, indicating substantial content.
• Annotations are specifically for chromosome-level genome assemblies, suggesting high-quality reference data.
• Released under a permissive CC0-1.0 license for maximum reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for specific tasks.
