Data from: Genome resources for Thelonectria rubi, the causal agent of Nectria canker of caneberries

<p><em>Thelonectria rubi</em> is the causal agent of <em>Nectria</em> canker of <em>Rubus</em> spp. Here, we report a high-quality draft genome sequence for this pathogen, which also represents the first genome sequence for a <em>Thelonectria</em> species. The genome assembly was 44.6 Mb in size, assembled into 669 scaffolds and consisting of 12,973 predicted protein-coding genes. The availability of genome data for <em>T. rubi</em> provides a critical additional resource for an important plant pathogen and will be useful for fungal biology, comparative genomic, taxonomic and population studies of this and related species.</p> <p>Whole-genome gene predictions and raw sequencing reads of <em>Thelonectria rubi</em> isolate CBS 177.27 are presented. </p><div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: Augustus gene predictions.</p> <p>File Name: Trubi<em>augustus.fa</em>.zip</p></li><br><li><p>Resource Title: Illumina sequencing reads with quality scores.</p> <p>File Name: T.rubiCBS17727_illumina<em>reads.R1.1.fastq</em>.zip</p></li></ul><p></p>
