First <i>De Novo</i> Draft Genome Sequence of the Pathogenic Fungus Fusarium udum F02845, Associated with Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L. Millspaugh) Wilt

Abstract

Fusarium udum F02845 is a destructive fungal pathogen which causes pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L. Millspaugh) wilt. Here we report the first <i>de novo</i> draft assembly of Fusarium udum F02845, isolated from an infected pigeonpea stem. The genome was determined to be 56.38 Mb in size, with a G+C content of 42.44%, and predicted to have 712 scaffolds with a total number of 11,829 genes.
