Draft Genome Resources for the Phytopathogenic Fungi Monilinia fructicola, M. fructigena, M. polystroma, and M. laxa, the Causal Agents of Brown Rot

Fungi in the genus Monilinia cause brown rot disease of stone and pome fruits. Here, we report the draft genome assemblies of four important phytopathogenic species: M. fructicola, M. fructigena, M. polystroma, and M. laxa. The draft genome assemblies were 39 Mb (M. fructigena), 42 Mb (M. laxa), 43...

Description
Summary:Fungi in the genus Monilinia cause brown rot disease of stone and pome fruits. Here, we report the draft genome assemblies of four important phytopathogenic species: M. fructicola, M. fructigena, M. polystroma, and M. laxa. The draft genome assemblies were 39 Mb (M. fructigena), 42 Mb (M. laxa), 43 Mb (M. fructicola), and 45 Mb (M. polystroma) with as few as 550 contigs (M. laxa). These are the first draft genome resources publicly available for M. laxa, M. fructigena, and M. polystroma.
