is an important fungal pathogen that causes tar spot of corn and has led to significant yield loss in the United States and other countries. is an obligate biotroph belonging to the Sordariomycetes class of Ascomycota. Due to the challenges posed by their obligate nature, there is no genome sequence available in the genus. isolate PM01 was collected from a corn field in Indiana and the genome was determined by next-generation sequencing. The assembly size is 45.7 Mb, with 56.46% repetitive sequences. There are 5,992 protein-coding genes and 59 are predicted as effector proteins. This genome resource will increase our understanding of genomic features of and will assist in studying the corn interaction and identifying potential resistant candidates for corn breeding programs.
是一种重要的真菌病原体，可引起玉米黑霉病，并导致美国和其他国家的产量显著下降。是一种专性活体营养生物，属于子囊菌门的Sordariomycetes 纲。由于其专性特性带来的挑战，该属中尚无基因组序列可用。PM01 分离株是从印第安纳州的一个玉米田中采集的，其基因组通过下一代测序确定。组装大小为 45.7Mb，重复序列为 56.46%。有 5992 个蛋白质编码基因，其中 59 个被预测为效应蛋白。这个基因组资源将增加我们对的基因组特征的理解，并有助于研究与玉米的相互作用，以及鉴定玉米育种计划中潜在的抗性候选基因。
