Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of potato pathogenic fungus, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. KGSJ26F3

Abstract

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. KGSJ26F3 is a plant pathogenic filamentous fungus isolated from wilted potato in northwest China where potato is the most important crop. We carried out a complete mitochondrial genome of F. oxysporum. The results showed the circular molecule is 46,664 bp, and the base composition of the mitogenome is as follows: A (34.3%), T (33.6%), C (14.6%), and G (17.5%). The mitogenome contains 18 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and 26 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. The gene order is identical to that of the other Fusarium mitogenomes. The taxonomic status of the F. oxysporum mitogenome exhibits a closest relationship with F. oxysporum. However, it varied in the structure of mitochondrial genome.
