Powdery mildew (PM) fungi are obligate biotrophs capable of infecting diverse plant hosts, ranging from monocotyledonous agricultural crops to dicotyledonous ornamental crops. The PM lifestyle poses significant challenges for studying these pathogens in isolation from their host. We present a draft genome of Golovinomyces magnicellulatus , a host-specific PM on Phlox species.
