Genome Sequence of the Black Yeast Exophiala lecanii-corni

Abstract

The genome sequence of Exophiala lecanii-corni , a melanized dimorphic fungus with the capability of degrading several volatile organic compounds, was sequenced using PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing to assist with understanding the molecular basis of its uncommon morphological and metabolic characteristics. The assembled draft genome is presented here.
