Genome data of Bipolaris zeicola

Bipolaris zeicola is one of the fungal pathogens that causes northern corn leaf spot disease in Zea mays. Here, we report a draft genome assembly of B. zeicola using a combination of Illumina PE150 and PacBio RSII long-read sequencing data. Approximately 6.99 Gb (193x coverage) of PacBio long reads were assembled into a 36.30 Mb genome assembly that, contained 24 contigs with an N50 of 2.05 Mb. A total of 11,303 genes were predicted, of which 545 were carbohydrate-active enzymes and 2,081 were membrane transporters.

玉蜀黍平脐蠕孢（Bipolaris zeicola）是引发玉蜀黍（Zea mays）北方叶斑病的真菌病原菌之一。本研究结合Illumina PE150与PacBio RSII长读长测序数据，完成了玉蜀黍平脐蠕孢的基因组草图组装并进行报道。本次研究共获得约6.99 Gb的PacBio长读长序列，对应193倍测序覆盖度，最终组装得到总长36.30 Mb的基因组，包含24个重叠群（contig），N50值为2.05 Mb。研究共预测得到11303个编码基因，其中545个为碳水化合物活性酶，2081个为膜转运蛋白。
