The quality of the assembled genome and annotated geneset were assessed first using the Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs (version 3.1.0; BUSCO) with the fungi_odb9 dataset [33 (link)].
For raw data polymerase reads after PacBioRS II sequencing, subreads were obtained by removing the low-quality or unknown reads, adapters and duplications. The filtered reads were assembled de novo using the Hierarchical Genome Assembly Process (HGAP) algorithm version 2.0 [34 (link)].
For genome assembly, the default parameters of HGAP2 were used (Minimum Subread Length = 500, Minimum Polymerase Read Quality = 0.80, Minimum Polymerase Read Length = 100, Overlapper Error Rate = 0.06, Overlapper Min Length = 40) with input genome size as 30 Mb.
