Chromosome-level genome sequence data and analysis of the white koji fungus, Aspergillus luchuensis mut. kawachii IFO 4308.

Project description:Aspergillus luchuensis mut. kawachii is used primarily in the production of shochu, a traditional Japanese distilled alcoholic beverage. Here, we report the chromosome-level genome sequence of A. luchuensis mut. kawachii IFO 4308 (NBRC 4308) and a comparison of the sequence with that of A. luchuensis RIB2601. The genome of strain IFO 4308 was assembled into nine contigs consisting of eight chromosomes and one mitochondrial DNA segment. The nearly complete genome of strain IFO 4308 comprises 37,287,730 bp with a GC content of 48.85% and 12,664 predicted coding sequences and 267 tRNAs. Comparison of the IFO 4308 and RIB2601 genomes revealed a highly conserved structure; however, the IFO 4308 genome is larger than that of RIB2601, which is primarily attributed to chromosome 5. The genome sequence of IFO 4308 was deposited in DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under accession numbers AP024425-AP024433.

Genomic sequence of the aflatoxigenic filamentous fungus Aspergillus nomius.

Project description:BackgroundAspergillus nomius is an opportunistic pathogen and one of the three most important producers of aflatoxins in section Flavi. This fungus has been reported to contaminate agricultural commodities, but it has also been sampled in non-agricultural areas so the host range is not well known. Having a similar mycotoxin profile as A. parasiticus, isolates of A. nomius are capable of secreting B- and G- aflatoxins.ResultsIn this study we discovered that the A. nomius type strain (NRRL 13137) has a genome size of approximately 36 Mb which is comparable to other Aspergilli whose genomes have been sequenced. Its genome encompasses 11,918 predicted genes, 72% of which were assigned GO terms using BLAST2GO. More than 1,200 of those predicted genes were identified as unique to A. nomius, and the most significantly enriched GO category among the unique genes was oxidoreducatase activity. Phylogenomic inference shows NRRL 13137 as ancestral to the other aflatoxigenic species examined from section Flavi. This strain contains a single mating-type idiomorph designated as MAT1-1.ConclusionsThis study provides a preliminary analysis of the A. nomius genome. Given the recently discovered potential for A. nomius to undergo sexual recombination, and based on our findings, this genome sequence provides an additional evolutionary reference point for studying the genetics and biology of aflatoxin production.

Multilocus sequence typing of the pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus.

Project description:A multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme was devised for Aspergillus fumigatus. The system involved sequencing seven gene fragments and was applied to a panel of 100 isolates of A. fumigatus from diverse sources. Thirty different sequence types were found among the 100 isolates, and 93% of the isolates differed from the other isolates by only one allele sequence, forming a single clonal cluster as indicated by the eBURST algorithm. The discriminatory power of the MLST method was only 0.93. These results strongly indicate that A. fumigatus is a species of a relatively recent origin, with low levels of sequence dissimilarity. Typing methods based on variable numbers of tandem repeats offer higher levels of strain discrimination. Mating type data for the 100 isolates showed that 71 isolates were type MAT1-2 and 29 isolates were MAT1-1.

Complete genome sequence dataset of enthomopathogenic Aspergillus flavus isolated from a natural infection of the cattle-tick Rhipicephalus microplus.

Project description:As the most important bovine ectoparasite, the southern cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus transmits lethal cattle diseases such as babesiosis and anaplasmosis, costing the global livestock industry billions of dollars annually. To control cattle ticks, preventive treatment of cattle with pesticides is a common practice; however, after decades of chemical treatment, pesticide resistance has arisen in cattle ticks, rendering most formulations ineffective over time. Facing the perspective of running out of effective chemical treatments against R. microplus, research on biocontrol alternatives is necessary. Acaro-pathogenic microorganisms isolated from different developmental stages of R. microplus offer potential as biocontrol agents. Aspergillus flavus strain INIFAP-2021, isolated from naturally infected cattle ticks, produced high levels of mobility and mortality in the tick population during experimental infections. The whole genome of the fungi was sequenced using the DNBSEQ platform by BGI. The genome was assembled using SOAPaligner, and A. flavus NRRL3357 was used as the reference genome; the complete genome contained eight pairs of chromosomes and 36.9 Mb with a GC content of 48.03%, exhibiting 11482 protein-coding genes. The final genome assembly was deposited at GenBank as a bio project under accession number PRJNA758689, and supplementary material is accessible through Mendeley DOI: 10.17632/mt8yxch6mz.1.

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a xerophilic fungus, Aspergillus pseudoglaucus.

Project description:Aspergillus pseudoglaucus is a xerophilic filamentous fungus which can produce various secondary metabolites. Here, we reported the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of A. pseudoglaucus isolated from Meju, a soybean brick in Korea. Its mitochondrial genome was successfully assembled from raw reads sequenced using MiSeq by Velvet and SOAPGapCloser. Total length of the mitochondrial genome is 53,882 bp, which is third longest among known Aspergillus mitochondrial genomes and encoded 58 genes (30 protein-coding genes including hypothetical ORFs, two rRNAs, and 26 tRNAs). Nucleotide sequence of coding regions takes over 66.6% and overall GC content is 27.8%. Phylogenetic trees present that A. pseudoglaucus is located outside of section Nidulantes. Additional researches will be required for clarifying phylogenetic position of section Aspergillus.

Chromosome assembled and annotated genome sequence of Aspergillus flavus NRRL 3357.

Project description:Aspergillus flavus is an opportunistic pathogen of crops, including peanuts and maize, and is the second leading cause of aspergillosis in immunocompromised patients. A. flavus is also a major producer of the mycotoxin, aflatoxin, a potent carcinogen, which results in significant crop losses annually. The A. flavus isolate NRRL 3357 was originally isolated from peanut and has been used as a model organism for understanding the regulation and production of secondary metabolites, such as aflatoxin. A draft genome of NRRL 3357 was previously constructed, enabling the development of molecular tools and for understanding population biology of this particular species. Here, we describe an updated, near complete, telomere-to-telomere assembly and re-annotation of the eight chromosomes of A. flavus NRRL 3357 genome, accomplished via long-read PacBio and Oxford Nanopore technologies combined with Illumina short-read sequencing. A total of 13,715 protein-coding genes were predicted. Using RNA-seq data, a significant improvement was achieved in predicted 5' and 3' untranslated regions, which were incorporated into the new gene models.
