The fungusRaffaelea quercus-mongolicae is the causal agent of Korean oak wilt, a disease associated with mass mortality of oak trees (e.g.,Quercus spp.). The fungus is vectored and dispersed by the ambrosia beetle,Platypus koryoensis . Here, we present the 27.0-Mb draft genome sequence ofR. quercus-mongolicae strain KACC44405.
