Marasmius tenuissimus strain:MS-2 Genome sequencing

Global chocolate production is threatened by thread blight disease (TBD), an emerging thread to the source of chocolate, Theobroma cacao. TBD is caused by multiple species in the Marasmiaceae family. The most common species isolated in a recent TBD survey in Ghana was Marasmius tenuissimus. Here, we have sequenced DNA from M. tenuissimus strain MS-2 for genome assembly and annotation.

全球巧克力生产正受到丝枯病（thread blight disease, TBD）的威胁，该病害是可可树（Theobroma cacao）这一巧克力原料来源面临的一种新兴威胁。丝枯病由小皮伞科（Marasmiaceae）的多个物种引发。在加纳近期开展的一项丝枯病调查中，分离得到的最常见物种为细小皮伞（Marasmius tenuissimus）。本研究对细小皮伞菌株MS-2的DNA进行了测序，以开展基因组组装与注释工作。
