Whole-Genome Shotgun Assembly and Analysis of the Genome of Shiraia sp. Strain Slf14, a Novel Endophytic Fungus Producing Huperzine A and Hypocrellin A
نویسندگان
چکیده
Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Shiraia sp. strain Slf14 (China Center for Type Culture Collection [CCTCC] no. 209294), which is used to produce huperzine A and hypocrellin A. The genome sequence will allow for the characterization of the molecular mechanisms underlying its beneficial properties.

Here, we report the whole-genome shotgun sequence of Bacillus mojavensis strain RRC101, isolated from a maize kernel. This strain is antagonistic to the mycotoxigenic plant pathogen Fusarium verticillioides and grows within maize tissue, suggesting potential as an endophytic biocontrol agent.
متن کاملAdaptive Responses to Oxidative Stress in the Filamentous Fungal Shiraia bambusicola.
Shiraia bambusicola can retain excellent physiological activity when challenged with maximal photo-activated hypocrellin, which causes cellular oxidative stress. The protective mechanism of this fungus against oxidative stress has not yet been reported. We evaluated the biomass and hypocrellin biosynthesis of Shiraia sp. SUPER-H168 when treated with high concentrations of H₂O₂. Hypocrellin prod...
