Cercospora canescens (Ellis and Martin) is a hemibiotrophic pathogen causing leaf spot disease on mungbean (Vigna radiata L). Genome sequence (∼33.97 Mb) assembled in 8239 contigs with 10627 protein coding genes. A total of 2842 proteins were identified as homologous of 223 predicted and 7562 putative uncharacterized involved in biological processes, molecular functions. The identified proteins are mainly involved in infection process used to compromise nutrients or destroy host tissues gycosidases, transposases, cytochrome P450s, genes codes to signal transduction, cell wall breakdown, transporters, host stomata perception, adhesion, polyketide synthase and cercosporin. A total of 528 simple sequence repeats were also identified from the genome sequence assembly of C. canescens. This study provides insights into pathogenic mechanism and a better understanding of virulence differentiation of C. canescens. It will also help in identification of similarity and differences in regions among the genomes of different species of Cercospora.
