Draft Genome Sequence of Fusarium sp. Strain DS 682, a Novel Fungal Isolate from the Grass Rhizosphere

Abstract

The novel fungal strain, Fusarium sp. strain DS 682, was isolated from the rhizosphere of the perennial grass, Bouteloua gracilis, at the Konza Prairie Biological Station in Kansas. This fungal strain is common across North American grasslands and is resilient to environmental fluctuations. The draft genome is estimated to be 97.2% complete.
