Identification of a complete YPT1 Rab GTPase sequence from the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum incanum

Abstract

Colletotrichum represent a genus of fungal species primarily known as plant pathogens with severe economic impacts in temperate, subtropical and tropical climates Consensus taxonomy and classification systems for Colletotrichum species have been undergoing revision as high resolution genomic data becomes available. Here we propose an alternative annotation that provides a complete sequence for a Colletotrichum YPT1 gene homolog using the whole genome shotgun sequence of Colletotrichum incanum isolated from soybean crops in Illinois, USA.
