Magnaporthe poae Assembly and Gene Annotation

About Magnaporthe poae ATCC 64411

Magnaporthe poae is an ascomycete fungus which causes the turfgrass disease commonly known as summer patch, or Poa patch. The disease occurs mostly on Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis), Fescues (Festuca sp.), and on Annual bluegrass (Poa annua). Bentgrass may also become infected but shows very few symptoms and quickly recovers. Summer Patch will usually become noticeable between June and September, although small signs can appear at any time but are not noticeable because the turfgrass can recover quickly.

Annotation

The genome sequence, assembly and protein coding genes annotation of the Magnaporthe poae (strain ATCC 64411) genome have been generated by the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard under the Magnaporthe poae sequencing project.

Non coding RNA genes have been annotated using tRNAScan-SE (Lowe, T.M. and Eddy, S.R. 1997), RFAM (Griffiths-Jones et al 2005), and RNAmmer (Lagesen K.,et al 2007); additional analysis tools have also been applied.
