dc.description.abstractThe genomes of Chrysoporthe austroafricana, Diplodia scrobiculata, Fusarium nygami, Leptographium lundbergii, Limonomyces culmigenus, Stagonosporopsis tanaceti, and Thielaviopsis punctulata are presented in this genome announcement. These seven genomes are from endophytes, plant pathogens and economically important fungal species. The genome sizes range from 26.6 Mb in the case of Leptographium lundbergii to 44 Mb for Chrysoporthe austroafricana. The availability of these genome data will provide opportunities to resolve longstanding questions regarding the taxonomy of species in these genera, and may contribute to our understanding of the lifestyles through comparative studies with closely related organisms.en_ZA

dc.description.sponsorshipThe genome sequencing of Diplodia scrobiculata, Chrysoporthe austroafricana, Fusarium nygamai, Leptographium lundbergii was cofunded by the Genomics Research Institute (University of Pretoria), Tree Protection Co-operative Programme (TPCP) and the DST-NRF Centre of Excellence in Tree Health Biotechnology (CTHB) at the Forestry and Agricultural Biotechnology Institute (FABI), together with the National Research Foundation (NRF) and the University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa. W.B. is grateful to the Claude Leon Foundation, South Africa for a Post-Doctoral Fellowship. The research on Stagonosporopsis tanaceti was supported by Botanical Resources Australia, Agricultural Services Pty Ltd,, and USDA-NIFA Hatch project NYG-625424, managed by The New York Agricultural Experiment Station, Cornell University (Geneva, NY). The genome sequencing of Limonomyces culmigenus (CBS 661.85) was funded by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS). M.M.W. is supported by a Class of 2013 USDA-ARS Headquarters Research Associate Award to J.A.C.en_ZA
