The mitochondrial genome of the endophyte Edenia gomezpompae CRI Eg3 isolated from sweet potato

Abstract

Edenia gomezpompae CRI Eg3 was isolated from the leaves of sweet potato. Its complete mitogenome contains 37,226 bp, with a G + C content of 26.1%. A total of 51 genes were annotated, including 16 protein-coding genes, 33 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA (s-rRNA, L-rRNA) genes. The most significant character of this mitogenome is its free of group I introns in the CDS regions. Phylogenetic analysis using the mitogenomes of relative fungal species indicated that CRI Eg3 is closely related to Shiraia bambusicola, and they clustered in the Pleosporales lineage. This is the first genome reported in the genus Edenia.
