The complete mitochondrial genome of
Pyricularia oryzae
Cavara 1892 strain Guy11 is 34,865 bp in length (GenBank accession number OP095391), containing 29 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 15 protein-coding genes (PCGs). The gene order and orientation are novel compared to other Sordariomycetes species with sequenced mitogenomes in the GenBank database. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that
P. oryzae
Guy11 and 19 other Sordariomycetes species form a monophyletic group. The complete mitochondrial sequence of
P. oryzae
Guy11 will be a valuable resource for species identification, population genetics, phylogenetics, and comparative genomics studies in Sordariomycetes and Magnaporthales.
