In addition to its economic impact, Colletotrichum acutatum sensu lato is an interesting model for molecular investigations due to the diversity of host-determined specialization and reproductive lifestyles within the species complex. The pathogen Colletotrichum fioriniae forms part of this species complex and causes anthracnose in a wide range of crops and wild plants worldwide. Some members of this species have also been reported to be entomopathogenic. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a heterothallic reference isolate of C. fioriniae (strain PJ7). This sequence provides a range of new resources that serve as a useful platform for further research in the field.
除了其经济影响外，由于该物种复合体中宿主决定的专化性和繁殖生活方式的多样性，尖孢炭疽菌复合种是分子研究的一个有趣模型。病原菌草莓炭疽菌是该物种复合体的一部分，在全球范围内的多种作物和野生植物中引起炭疽病。据报道，该物种的一些成员也是昆虫病原性的。在这里，我们报告了草莓炭疽菌异宗配合参考菌株（菌株PJ7）的基因组序列草图。该序列提供了一系列新资源，为该领域的进一步研究提供了一个有用的平台。
