This dataset presents the *Ladona fulva* Official Gene Set (OGS) v1.0.

This dataset presents the *Ephemera danica* Official Gene Set (OGS) v1.0. The OGS is an integration of automatic gene predictions from *Ephemera danica* genome annotations v0.5.3, with manual annotations by the research community. Manual and automated annotations were lifted over from genome assembly *Ephemera danica* genome assembly v1.0 to genome assembly Edan_2.0 using the coordinates_conversion and remap-gff3 programs.

The *Frankliniella occidentalis* genome was recently sequenced and annotated as part of the i5k pilot project by the Baylor College of Medicine. The *Frankliniella occidentalis* research community has manually reviewed and curated the computational gene predictions and generated an official gene set, OGSv1.0. OGSv1.0 was generated by merging gene set FOCC-V0.5.3-Models generated by the Baylor College of Medicine, and community-curated models in the Apollo software, after QC of the Apollo output. After the merge, scaffolds that were likely bacterial contamination were identified by John H. Werren, and gene models overlapping with these contaminated regions were removed from the OGS.

This dataset presents the Manduca sexta Official Gene Set (OGS) v2.0. It is predicted from genome assembly Msex_1.0 (GCA_000262585.1).
