Abstract

Ophiosphaerella herpotricha, O. korrae, and O. narmari are the causal agents of spring dead spot of warm-season grasses worldwide, and O. korrae is the causal agent of necrotic ring spot of cool-season grasses that primarily occurs in North and South America. All three species are considered important pathogens of turfgrasses, and there is limited genomic information about these ectotrophic, root-infecting fungi. Herein are reported the draft genome sequences of three isolates of O. herpotricha, five O. korrae, and three O. narmari isolates, furthering the knowledge about these three important turfgrass disease-causing species.
