Abstract
Cladosporium spp., as one of the largest and most heterogeneous genera of hyphomycetes, are widely distributed worldwide. This genus is usually adaptable to a wide variety of extreme environments. However, only 11 genomes of Cladosporium genus have been publicly released. From 2017, we found for the first time that Cladosporium velox could cause cotton boll disease and lead to stiffness and cracking boll in Xinjiang, China. Herein, we provide a high-quality reference genome for the C. velox strain C4 isolated from cotton boll in Xinjiang, China. The genome size and encoding gene number of the C. velox strain C4 and C. cucumerinum strain CCNX2, which was recently released and caused the cucumber scab, showed minor differences. This resource will contribute to future research that aims to elucidate the genetic basis of C. velox pathogenicity and could expand our knowledge of Cladosporium spp. genomic characteristics that will be valuable for the development of Cladosporium disease control measures.
