Genome assembly and annotation of Trichoderma afroharzianum T5.1, causal agent of maize ear rot
Trichoderma afroharzianum strain T5.1 was isolated from maize in Italy and identified as the causal agent of seed and ear rot. Here, we report its draft genome sequence, with a size of 41.05 Mb, a GC content of 46.8 %, and 13,224 predicted protein-coding genes. This genomic resource will facilitate investigations into pathogenic mechanisms of Trichoderma species on agricultural crops.
