Draft genome sequence of the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium euwallaceae, the causal agent of Fusarium dieback

Abstract

Here, we report the genome of Fusarium euwallaceae strain HFEW-16- IV-019, an isolate obtained from Kuroshio shot hole borer (a Euwallacea sp.). These beetles were collected in Tijuana, Mexico, from elm trees showing typical symptoms of Fusarium dieback. The final assembly consists of 287 scaffolds spanning 48,274,071 bp and 13,777 genes.
