Here we present haplotype-phased, near chromosome-scale genome assemblies for the poplar rust pathogens Melampsora larici-populina 98AG31 and Melampsora allii-populina 12AY07, generated using PacBio HiFi sequencing and Hi-C-guided scaffolding. For each species, we resolve 18 chromosomes per haplotype, providing the first chromosome-level representations of poplar rust fungal species. M. larici-populina diploid assembly spans ~203 Mb, while M. allii-populina reaches ~416 Mb, with high completeness and strong collinearity between haplotypes.","dates":{"publication":"2026/06/24"},"accession":"GSE328168","cross_references":{"GSM":["GSM9674370","GSM9674369"],"GPL":["36825","36824"],"GSE":["328168"],"taxon":[" Melampsora allii-populina","Melampsora laricis-populina"]}}
