Phytophthora lateralis Assembly and Gene Annotation

Phytophthora lateralis is a soil-borne plant pathogen that causes cedar root disease in Port Orford cedar trees (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana).

Genome sequencing was carried out by the University of Exeter and the Agri-Food & Biosciences Institute (AFBI). The genome assembly provided was imported from that submitted to INSDC as AOFI00000000.

Protein coding gene annotation was done by the University of Exeter and the Agri-Food & Biosciences Institute (AFBI), was imported from the data provided by the Exeter Centre for Emerging Plant Disease.

Non coding RNA genes have been annotated using tRNAScan-SE (Lowe, T.M. and Eddy, S.R. 1997), RFAM (Griffiths-Jones et al 2005), and RNAmmer (Lagesen K.,et al 2007); additional analysis tools have also been applied.
