Genome assembly and annotation files of Colletotrichum graminicola strain TZ-3

The maize anthracnose stalk rot and leaf blight diseases caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum graminicola is emerging as an important threat to corn production worldwide. In this work, we provide an improved genome assembly of C. graminicola strain TZ-3 by using the PacBio Sequel II and Illumina high-throughput sequencing technologies. We hope that this genome information will facilitate the pathogenesis research of this plant pathogen.
