Wild relatives of wheat are valuable sources for enhancing the genetic diversity of common wheat.
Aegilops comosa
, an annual diploid species with an MM genome constitution, possesses numerous agronomically valuable traits that can be exploited for wheat improvement. In this study, we report a chromosome-level genome assembly of
Ae. comosa
accession PI 551049, generated using PacBio high-fidelity (HiFi) reads and high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data. The assembly spans 4.47 Gb, featuring a contig N50 of 23.59 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 619.05 Mb. A total of 39,057 gene models were annotated through a combination of homoeologous proteins, Iso-seq, and RNA-seq data. Comparative genome analysis revealed a terminal intrachromosomal translocation on chromosome 2 M in
Ae. comosa
. This newly constructed reference genome of
Ae. comosa
will serve as an important genomic resource for comparative genomic studies and the cloning of agriculturally important genes.
