TL;DR
This paper provides a draft genome of the fungus Metarhizium pingshaense, which infects insects and could be used for biological pest control.
Contribution
The study presents the first annotated draft genome of Metarhizium pingshaense strain M-1000.
Findings
An annotated draft genome of Metarhizium pingshaense was sequenced and analyzed.
The genome was isolated from a Spodoptera species individual.
This resource supports future research on M. pingshaense as a biological control agent.
Abstract
The entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium pingshaense infects diverse insect host species. We present an annotated draft genome of M. pingshaense (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation [CSIRO] strain M-1000) isolated from a Spodoptera species individual, thereby contributing to future research of M. pingshaense as a potential biological control agent.
