,Annotation data were generated from existing genome assemblies of Calonectria henricotiae JAC13-131 (aka P-10-5865) and C. pseudonaviculata JAC13-27 (aka CT1). Gene prediction and annotations were conducted using the Funannotate v1.8.1 pipeline (https://funannotate.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).,

,Dollar spot is one of the most destructive globally distributed diseases of turfgrass. The identity of the fungus responsible for the disease has been the subject of debate for more than 75 years. These datasets provide the phylogenetic evidence from three nucleotide sequence markers (CaM, ITS and Mcm7) that underlie the establishment of the new fungal genus Clarireedia, which includes four species that cause turfgrass dollar spot disease: Clarireedia homoeocarpa, C. bennettii, C. jacksonii, and C. monteithiana. Datasets include the DNA sequence alignments for the CaM, ITS and Mcm7 markers for exemplar Clarireedia isolates, and the complete combined phylogenetic dataset and phylogenetic tree file.,,

The exotic grass-fire cycle is degrading semiarid rangelands, such as the vast areas of shrub-steppe in North America now invaded by fire-promoting cheatgrass. Chemical- or bio-herbicides are sprayed onto soils to inhibit the invaders, but information on chemical- or bio-herbicide effects on plant communities is limited. We asked how the plant community responded to the bioherbicide Pseudomonas fluorescens strain ACK55 (Battalion Pro®) in comparison to the separate and combined effects of the most conventional pre-emergent chemical herbicide, imazapic (Plateau®), in two cheatgrass-invaded sagebrush-steppe sites. Plant community responses are compared with soil microbial community responses in the Larger Work, and soil microbial data are available in GenBank. Plant community responses are compared with soil microbial community responses in the Larger Work, and soil microbial sequence data were deposited to the NCBI Short Read Archive (BioProject PRJNA1254875).

These data contain the raw quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) results for all Ceratocystis lukuohia and huliohia testing of ohia trees, soil, and seedlings.

These data contain sample information and locality and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) results from extraction and testing of individual tape strips within Passive Environmental Samplers (PES). Samplers were placed at 5 locations on Hawaii Island between 2016 and 2017.

Rapid ʽŌhiʽa Death (ROD) currently threatens ōhiʽa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) on Hawaiʽi Island. First identified in Puna in 2014, the disease has now spread island wide. Besides direct sampling of trees, environmental sampling could serve as an easier and broader strategy to detect Ceratocystis spp., the fungi causing Rapid Ohia Death (ROD). Envrionmental sampling could also help monitor the effect of felling ROD infected trees. We developed Passive and Active Environmental Samplers for collecting airborne particulates and deployed them at a property in Puna, where both C. lukuohia, and C. huliohia had been detected, and where the land owner practiced the management method of felling infected trees. We set up 2 Active Environmental Samplers (modified mosquito traps connected to a battery that uses a fan to continuously draw in air) and 3 Passive Environmental Samplers (uses a vane to move in the direction of the wind without the use of electricity) from July 12th to October 25th, 2016. The Active Traps contained one slide (1 replicate) each, while the Passive Traps contained 4 slides (4 replicates) each. Wind and precipitation data from a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency (NOAA) weather station at the Hilo airport was used in analysis. The dataset contains a list of sampling weeks, their start and end dates, and whether or not tree felling occurred during that week.
