The genome sequence and gene prediction of Venturia effusa albino have not been determined by the Joint Genome Institute (JGI), but were downloaded from NCBI on May 20, 2020. In order to allow comparative analyses with other fungal genomes sequenced by the JGI, a copy of this genome is incorporated into Mycocosm. Please note that this copy of the genome is not maintained by NCBI and is therefore not automatically updated. JGI tools were used to automatically annotate predicted proteins.

Venturia effusa is a fungal pathogen of pecan trees (Carya illinoinensis), on which it causes pecan scab. The fungus is highly pathogenic and causes substantial economic losses throughout the southeastern United States.
