Diaporthe species are the causal agents of melanose, stem-end rot, and gummosis diseases of citrus. D. citri is the predominant species on different citrus varieties. These diseases exceedingly reduce quality and marketability of fresh fruits. Melanose on fruits especially causes massive economic losses. The infection mechanisms of D. citri are still unclear and the genome sequence of D. citri has not been released. In order to systemically explore the interaction between citrus and D. citri, we sequenced the whole-genome of D. citri NFHF-8-4, which was isolated from a sample with melanose in Jiangxi Province. The NFHF-8-4 genome sequence will provide valuable information for studying the development process, infection process, and resistance to fungicides mechanisms in D. citri.
