A reference genome sequence resource for the sugar beet root rot pathogen Aphanomyces cochlioides

View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT Aphanomyces cochlioides, the causal agent of damping-off and root rot of sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L.), is a soil-dwelling oomycete responsible for yield losses in all major sugar beet growing regions. Currently, genomic resources for A. cochlioides are limited. Here we report a de novo genome assembly using a combination of long-read MinION (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) and short-read Illumina sequence data for A. cochlioides isolate 103-1, from Breckenridge, MN. The assembled genome was 76.3 Mb, with a contig N50 of 2.6 Mb. The reference assembly was annotated and was composed of 32.1% repetitive elements and 20,274 gene models. This high-quality genome assembly of A. cochlioides will be a valuable resource for understanding genetic variation, virulence factors, and comparative genomics of this important sugar beet pathogen.
