Stemphylium vesicarium is the causal agent of several plant diseases as well Brown Spot of Pear (BSP), which is one of the most economically important fungal diseases in European pear-production areas. We report the announcement of the genome sequence resource of the S. vesicarium strain 173-1a13FI1M3 isolated from pear, and sensitive to the mostly used fungicide classes currently authorized in Europe against BSP, together with the genome properties. The availability of this draft genome could represent a first important step in understanding the physiology and the infection mechanism of the pathogen. Furthermore, this contribution could indirectly improve the integrated control of BSP and of other plant infections and the investigation on S. vesicarium as a potential allergenic fungus in humans.

Abstract
Stemphylium vesicarium is the causal agent of several plant diseases as well Brown Spot of Pear (BSP), which is one of the most economically important fungal diseases in European pear-production areas. We report the announcement of the genome sequence resource of the S. vesicarium strain 173-1a13FI1M3 isolated from pear, and sensitive to the mostly used fungicide classes currently authorized in Europe against BSP, together with the genome properties. The availability of this draft genome could represent a first important step in understanding the physiology and the infection mechanism of the pathogen. Furthermore, this contribution could indirectly improve the integrated control of BSP and of other plant infections and the investigation on S. vesicarium as a potential allergenic fungus in humans.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
