| Description | Gibberella zeae, otherwise known by its anamorph (asexual) name Fusarium graminearum, causes several diseases of cereal grains, including Gibberella ear rot in corn and Fusarium head blight or scab in wheat and other grains. Fusaria have very distinctive banana-shaped conidia. Gibberella zeae can produce the trichothecene mycotoxin vomitoxin which inhibits protein biosynthesis and zearalenone, a potent estrogenic metabolite. This latter chemical can reduce fecundity in pigs fed infected corn. Gibberella zeae is homothallic - it can undergo sexual development and reproduction without needing to encounter an opposite mating type. The genome sequence, assembly and gene models were generated by the Broad Institute as part of their work on the Fusarium Comparative Sequencing Project. The genome has a total estimated size of 36.5 Mb and was sequenced to a coverage of 10x in 31 scaffolds. The genome is predicted to contain 13,321 protein-coding-genes. |
