SNP call data for: The current epidemic of the barley pathogen Ramularia collo-cygni derives from a recent population expansion and shows global admixture

Ramularia Leaf Spot is becoming an ever increasing problem in main barley growing regions since the 1980s, causing up to 70% yield loss in extreme cases. Yet, the causal agent Ramularia collo-cygni, remains poorly studied. The diversity of the pathogen in the field thus far remains unknown. Furthermore, it is unknown to which extend the pathogen has a sexual reproductive cycle. To date, the teleomorph of R. collo-cygni has not been observed.

To study the genetic diversity of R. collo-cygni and to get more insights into its biology, we sequenced the genomes of 19 R. collo-cygni isolates from multiple geographic locations and diverse hosts. Here we share the SNP call data as well as the reference genome.
