Abstract

Phytophthora gonapodyides is a newly reported oomycetes pathogen associated with root rot of red raspberry. We generated high-quality whole genome resource for P. gonapodyides, which was pathogenic on red raspberry. The genome size was 88,717,598 bp with a BUSCO completeness score of 93.9%. This genome resource provides insight on pathogen biology of Phytophthora spp. causing root rot of raspberry. To our best knowledge, this is the first complete genome assembly of plant pathogenic P. gonapodyides.

Keywords: Illumina Sequencing; Phytophthora gonapodyides; oomycete; red raspberry.
