Pseudocercospora macadamiae causes husk spot in macadamia in Australia. Lack of genomic resources for this pathogen has restricted acquiring knowledge on the mechanism of disease development, spread, and its role in fruit abscission. To address this gap, we sequenced the genome of P. macadamiae. The sequence was de novo assembled into a draft genome of 40 Mb, which is comparable to closely related species in the family Mycosphaerellaceae. The draft genome comprises 212 scaffolds, of which 99 scaffolds are over 50 kb. The genome has a 49% GC content and is predicted to contain 15,430 protein-coding genes. This draft genome sequence is the first for P. macadamiae and represents a valuable resource for understanding genome evolution and plant disease resistance.

澳洲假单胞菌在澳大利亚的澳洲坚果引起壳斑。该病原体缺乏基因组资源限制了对疾病发展，传播及其在水果脱落中的作用的认识。为了解决这一差距，我们对玛氏疟原虫的基因组进行了测序。该序列从头组装到40 Mb的基因组草图中，可与霉菌科中密切相关的物种进行比较。基因组草图包含212个支架，其中99个支架超过50 kb。该基因组的GC含量为49％，预计包含15,430个蛋白质编码基因。该基因组序列草案是Macadamiae的第一个序列，是理解基因组进化和植物抗病性的宝贵资源。
