Comparative genomics reveals high biological diversity and specific adaptations in the industrially and medically important fungal genus Aspergillus

Ronald P. de Vries, +132 more
- 14 Feb 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a comparative genomics and experimental study of the aspergilli genus is presented, which allows for the first time a genus-wide view of the biological diversity of the Aspergillus and in many, but not all, cases linked genome differences to phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two new aflatoxin producing species, and an overview of Aspergillus section Flavi

TL;DR: Aspergillus subgenus Circumdati section Flavi includes species with usually biseriate conidial heads, in shades of yellow-green to brown, and dark sclerotia, and several species assigned to this section are either important mycotoxin producers including aflatoxins, cyclopiazonic acid, ochratoxins and kojic acid, or are used in oriental food fermentation processes and as hosts for heterologous gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative genomics of citric-acid-producing Aspergillus niger ATCC 1015 versus enzyme-producing CBS 513.88

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed whole-genome sequencing of the Aspergillus niger wild-type strain (ATCC 1015) and produced a genome sequence of very high quality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyphasic taxonomy of the genus Talaromyces

TL;DR: A monograph on Talaromyces applying a polyphasic species concept, including morphological, molecular and physiological characters, is provided, based on an ITS, BenA and RPB2 multigene phylogeny.
