Abstract

The first draft genome sequence of the pearl millet blast pathogen Magnaporthe grisea PMg_Dl from India is presented. The genome information of M. grisea will be useful to understand the Magnaporthe speciation, genetic diversity, environmental adaptation, and pathogenic and host range determinants.

Highlights

  • The first draft genome sequence of the pearl millet blast pathogen Magnaporthe grisea PMg_Dl from India is presented

  • BLASTX with an E value of 1eϪ5 resulted in the annotation of 9,649 coding DNA sequences (CDSs) that had significant BLAST hits

  • Gene ontology (GO) annotations of the genes were carried out using Blast2GO to classify the function of the predicted genes [12]

Summary

Introduction

The first draft genome sequence of the pearl millet blast pathogen Magnaporthe grisea PMg_Dl from India is presented. PacBio reads of the PMg_Dl sample were assembled into scaffolds by SPAdes [9] genome assembler version 3.12.0, and scaffolding was carried out by SSAKE-based scaffolding of preassembled contigs after extension (SSPACE) version 3.0 [10]. The assembly of 341 scaffolds resulted in a genome size of 47.90 Mb with an N50 value of 765,468 bp.
