Abstract

Fusarium udum F02845 is a destructive fungal pathogen which causes pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L. Millspaugh) wilt. Here we report the first de novo draft assembly of Fusarium udum F02845, isolated from an infected pigeonpea stem. The genome was determined to be 56.38 Mb in size, with a G+C content of 42.44%, and predicted to have 712 scaffolds with a total number of 11,829 genes.
