Genome Sequence Resources of Colletotrichum truncatum, C. plurivorum, C. musicola, and C. sojae: Four Species Pathogenic to Soybean (Glycine max).

Colletotrichum is a large genus of plant pathogenic fungi comprising more than 200 species. In this work, we present the genome sequences of four Colletotrichum species pathogenic to soybean: C. truncatum, C. plurivorum, C. musicola, and C. sojae. While C. truncatum is globally considered the most important pathogen, the other three species have been described and associated with soybean only recently. The genome sequences will provide insights into factors that contribute to pathogenicity toward soybean and will be useful for further research into the evolution of Colletotrichum.
