The structure of the Fusarium culmorum mitogenome is similar to that of closely related Fusarium spp.: it has a total length of 103,844 bp, the base composition of the genome is the following: A (35.4%), T (32.9%), C (14.6%), and G (17.1%). The mitogenome contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and 28 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, all coded on the same strand of DNA. The gene order is identical to that of the other Fusarium and Hypocreales mitogenomes. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian analysis based on the concatenated amino acid dataset of mitochondrial protein-coding genes confirmed close genetic relationship of F. culmorum to the other type B trichothecene producers F. graminearum and F. gerlachii.
