Abstract

The fungal genus Ophiostoma contains numerous species that share close associations with wood-boring insects, a relationship with important consequences for global biosecurity. Here, we provide draft genomes for three Ophiostoma species within the well-known Ophiostoma ulmi complex. These resources are valuable for future research efforts related to Ophiostoma and the establishment of biosecurity-focused databases.
