Abstract Camellia sinensis is a globally important perennial crop plant cultivated for tea production. Here, we present a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of a cultivated tea cultivar named Licha 5, collected from Lishui, China. We combined PacBio HiFi long-read sequencing, Illumina short-read sequencing, and Hi-C scaffolding to assemble a 3.10 Gb genome comprising 15 pseudochromosomes.
