A chromosome-scale genome assembly resource for Myriosclerotinia sulcatula infecting sedge grass (Carex sp.)

Tijdschriftbijdrage - Tijdschriftartikel

The fungus Myriosclerotinia sulcatula is a close relative of the notorious polyphagous plant pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum but exhibits a host range restricted to plants from the Carex genus (Cyperaceae family). To date, there are no genomic resources available for fungi in the Myriosclerotinia genus. Here, we present a chromosome-scale reference genome assembly for M. sulcatula. The assembly contains 24 contigs with a total length of 43.53 Mbp, with scaffold N50 of 2,649.7 kbp and N90 of 1,133.1 kbp. BRAKER-predicted gene models were manually curated using WebApollo, resulting in 11,275 protein-coding genes that we functionally annotated. We provide a high-quality reference genome assembly and annotation for M. sulcatula as a resource for studying evolution and pathogenicity in fungi from the Sclerotiniaceae family.
