| More Details: | Cercospora janseana causes narrow brown leaf spot of rice. A nearly complete telomere-to-telomere reference genome was assembled with a combination of Oxford Nanopore and Illumina sequences. The genome assembly has a total length of 39,075,509 bp and consists of 15 chromosomes, 14 of which have telomeric repeats at both ends. The assembly N50 is 2.97 Mb and the L50 is five contigs. RNA-seq-mediated gene annotation identified 10,850 genes, including 955 predicted secreted proteins and 361 predicted effector proteins. This highly contiguous and almost complete C. janseana reference genome will be a vital resource for further investigation of host-pathogen interactions and genome evolution within this pathosystem.
