Genome assemblies of Geosmithia species (Hypocreales)
Geosmithia is a genus of fungi associated with bark beetles. Species of Geosmithia occupy diverse ecological niches, ranging from generalists associated with multiple host tree species and beetle vectors to conifer specialists and obligate nutritional symbionts cultivated by specific ambrosia beetles. This BioProject comprises genome assemblies generated to investigate the genomic basis of independently evolved ecological strategies within the genus.
