Genome Sequence of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is widely produced in tropical and subtropical regions. World mango production in 2021 is estimated over 5700 million tons . However, its nutritional fruit is particularly vulnerable to pathogen infections. Anthracnose, mainly caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, is recognized as one of the most prevalent diseases of postharvest mangoes and results in great economic losses. The effectiveness of controlling mango anthracnose relies on clarifying the pathogenic mechanism of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. The genome of C. gloeosporioides can serve as a valuable resource for researching the pathogenesis and evolution of this pathogen. We present the genome of mango C. gloeosporioides CgSC2 based on PacBio RS II.
