Abstract

The genome of the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium tricinctum strain INRA104 was sequenced at a fold-coverage of more than 500×. This led to 23 scaffolds, including one scaffold for the mitochondrial genome, for a total genome size of 42.8 Mb, with an average GC content of 45% and 13,387 predicted genes.
