    Abstract:
    Spot blotch, caused by fungal pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana Shoemaker, is one of the most frequent diseases affecting barley-growing regions worldwide. In this study, we reported the genome sequence of the highly virulent B. sorokiniana strain GN1 using the Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform. In total, 57 million 150-nucleotide paired-end clean reads were obtained and assembled into 96 scaffolds with an estimated genome size of 34.33 Mb. Furthermore, we identified genes that may be associated with strain-specific virulence and performed phylogenetic analysis of GN1 with five other Bipolaris spp. These results for GN1 will provide important information in understanding its molecular underpinning of pathogenicity and help identify novel sources of genetic resistance for improving disease resistance in barley.
