European white oaks (Quercus section Quercus) are ecologically and economically important forest trees characterized by extensive shared genetic variation and a history of interspecific gene flow. Genomic resources remain uneven across species, limiting comparative analyses and pangenome development. Here, we present haplotype-resolved chromosome-scale genome assemblies and genome annotations for four European white oak species: Quercus robur, Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, and Q. frainetto. The assemblies were generated from PacBio HiFi sequencing data and include both phased haplotypes for each species. Genome sizes range from 779 to 817 Mb and all assemblies are organized into 12 chromosome-scale pseudomolecules with high completeness and contiguity. We additionally provide species-specific repeat annotations, structurally and functionally annotated protein-coding gene sets, and complete organellar genomes. The dataset includes the first reference genomes for Q. pubescens and Q. frainetto, together with newly generated assemblies for Q. robur and Q. petraea produced using a consistent sequencing and analysis workflow. These resources provide a standardized framework for comparative genomics, pangenome construction, genome evolution studies, and investigations of adaptation and introgression across European white oaks.
