Genome sequence of the root-knot nematode <i>Meloidogyne luci</i>

Abstract

Root-knot nematodes from the genus <i>Meloidogyne</i> are polyphagous plant endoparasites and agricultural pests of global importance. Here, we report the high-quality genome sequence of <i>Meloidogyne luci</i> population SI-Smartno V13. The resulting genome assembly of <i>M. luci</i> SI-Smartno V13 consists of 327 contigs, with an N50 contig length of 1,711,905 bp and a total assembly length of 209.16 Mb.
