SRP043502 PRJNA248900 Erysiphe necator Genome sequencing branching isolate Erysiphe necator, the causal agent of grapevine powdery mildew, is an agriculturally and economically important fungal pathogen. The goal of this project is to supplement the c-strain for E. necator with another genotype for isolate variant studies. The E. necator isolate branching genome was sequenced at 29X coverage using an Illumina shotgun sequencing approach. The source of DNA was conidia collected from infected grapevine leaves at 20 days post inoculation. The reads were assembled into 6,225 scaffolds. The E. necator genome has an estimated size of 125Mb and a repetitive content of 60%. Erysiphe necator strain:branching pubmed 25487071
