Armillaria borealis genome sequencing, assembly and annotation. Armillaria borealis strain:AB13-TR4-IP16

Armillaria borealis causes the root white rot disease that weakens and often kills woody plants. However, little is known about ecological behavior and genetics of A. borealis. Mainly A. borealis sp. behaves as a secondary pathogen killing trees already weakened by biotic and abiotic factors. However, changing environment might cause unpredictable effects in fungus behavior.
