First Draft Genome Sequence of Wheat Spot Blotch Pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana BS_112 from India, Obtained Using Hybrid Assembly.

ABSTRACT: Bipolaris sorokiniana is a devastating fungal pathogen causing spot blotch of wheat. We report here the first draft genome of Bipolaris sorokiniana strain BS_112 from India using sequence reads from the Ion Torrent, Illumina HiSeq, and Nanopore platforms. The genome size was estimated at 35.64 Mb with an average G+C content of 50.20%.
