Abstract

Aspergillus fischeri is a common food spoilage fungus and a close relative of the opportunistic human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus Here, we sequenced the genomes of two isolates of A. fischeri to build resources for comparative genomics and to aid in differentiation between A. fischeri subspecies.

Highlights

  • Aspergillus decaying fischeri is a filamentous fungus that is organic matter [1, 2], a common agent naturally found in soil of food spoilage [1–3], and and other a rare opportunistic pathogen in humans [4–6]

  • We extracted the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region from the A. fischeri IBT 3003 and IBT 3007 genomes, and they were subjected to a BLAST search against the NCBI nonredundant database [20]

  • Totals of 98.4% and 98.5% of BUSCO genes were recovered from the A. fischeri IBT 3003 and IBT 3007 assemblies, respectively

Summary

Introduction

Aspergillus decaying fischeri is a filamentous fungus that is organic matter [1, 2], a common agent naturally found in soil of food spoilage [1–3], and and other a rare opportunistic pathogen in humans [4–6]. DNA was isolated directly from spores using the MasterPure yeast DNA Purification kit following the manufacturer’s instructions, with several minor modifications. The 150-bp paired-end libraries were constructed and sequenced by Novogene on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencer.
