Description
Summary:<i>Fusarium oxysporum</i> f. sp. <i>cubense</i> (<i>Foc</i>) causes Fusarium wilt, a devastating epidemic disease that has caused widespread damage to banana crops worldwide. We report the draft genomes of <i>Foc</i> race 1 (16117) and <i>Foc</i> tropical race 4 <i>(Fusarium odoratissimum)</i> (CNSD1) isolates from China, assembled using PacBio HiFi sequencing reads, with functional annotation performed. The strains group in distinct lineages within the <i>Fusarium oxysporum</i> species complex. This genetic resource will contribute towards understanding the pathogenicity and evolutionary dynamics of <i>Foc</i> populations in banana-growing regions around the world.
