Draft genome assembly dataset of the Basidiomycete pathogenic fungus, .

is a soil-borne Basidiomycete pathogenic fungus that eminent as the key causal of devastating disease in oil palm, named basal stem rot. Being a threat to sustainable palm oil production, it is essential to comprehend the fundamental view of this fungus. However, there is gap of information due to its limited number of genome sequence that is available for this pathogenic fungus.

Transcriptomic data of mature oil palm basal trunk tissue infected with .

To date, is known to be the causal agent of basal stem rot (BSR) disease in oil palm (). This disease causes rotting in the roots, basal and upper stem of oil palm. Infection causes progressive destruction of the basal tissues at the oil palm trunk and internal dry rotting, particularly at the intersection between the bole and trunk.
