Abstract

Black rot, caused by Alternaria radicina, seriously endangers carrots throughout the growing season, affecting both leaves and fleshy roots. In this study, we sequenced and assembled the genome of the A. radicina isolate CBR2. The genome was 34.6 Mb in size and consisted of 6 scaffolds. The sequence information provided in this genome will be used as a reference for further comparative genomics analysis of Alternaria species and will contribute to disease control in carrot production.
