Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most impor- tant grain legume for direct human consumption world- wide. Flageolet bean originates from France and presents typ- ical organoleptic properties, including the remarkable fea- ture of having small pale green colored seeds. Here, we re- port the whole-genome data, assembly and annotation of the flageolet bean accession ‘Flavert’. High molecular weight DNA and RNA were extracted and subjected to long-read se- quencing using PacBio Sequel II platform. The genome con- sisted of 566,238,753 bp assembled in 13 molecules, includ- ing 11 chromosomes plus the mitochondrial and chloroplastic genomes. Annotation predicted 29,549 protein coding genes and 6,958 non-coding RNA. This high-quality genome (99.2% BUSCO completeness) represents a valuable data set for fur- ther genomic and genetic studies on common bean and more generally on legumes. To our knowledge, this is the first whole-genome sequence of a common bean accession orig- inating from Europe.
