| Résumé: | Corynespora cassiicola is a ubiquitous pathogenic fungus that can infect a broad range of plant hosts. Corynespora leaf fall, caused by C. cassiicola, is one of the major diseases on rubber tree in China. This disease is having an increasing affect on natural rubber production worldwide. In this study, by combining the Nanopore and Illumina sequencing technologies, we present the chromosome-scale genome sequence of the rubber tree-sampled C. cassiicola strain XJ collected in the subtropical region of China. The assembly consists of 23 scaffolds (N50 = 4.62 Mb) with an estimated genome size of 44.42 Mb (only 166 non-ATCG bases) and 16,108 protein-coding genes. The genome will provide a valuable resource for further research on the pathogenesis and comparative genomics of C. cassiicola on rubber tree and other hosts |
