Draft genome sequence of Dactylonectria macrodidyma, a plant-pathogenic fungus in the Nectriaceae

Abstract

Dactylonectria macrodidyma is part of the Nectriaceae, a family containing important plant pathogens. This species possesses the ability to induce disease on grapevine, avocado, and olive. Here, we report the first draft genome of D. macrodidyma isolate JAC15-245. The assembled genome was 58 Mbp and contained an estimated 16,454 genes.
