Draft Genome Sequence of Neofusicoccum parvum Isolate UCR-NP2, a Fungal Vascular Pathogen Associated with Grapevine Cankers

Genome Announc. 2013 Jun 13;1(3):e00339-13. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00339-13.

Abstract

Neofusicoccum parvum, a member of the Botryosphaeriaceae family, is a vascular pathogen that causes severe decline and dieback symptoms in grapevines worldwide. The draft genome of the grapevine isolate N. parvum UCR-NP2 provides a first glimpse into the complex set of putative virulence factors that this pathogen may use to rapidly colonize plants.
