The Japanese oak wilt pathogen Raffaelea quercivora and the platypodid beetle, Platypus quercivorus , cause serious mass mortality of Quercus spp. in Japan. Here, we present the first draft genome sequence of R. quercivora JCM 11526 to increase our understanding of the mechanism of pathogenicity and symbiosis with the ambrosia beetle.
