Chromosome level assembly and secondary metabolite potential of the parasitic fungus Cordyceps militaris
24 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cordyceps militaris is an insect pathogenic fungus that is prized for its use in traditional medicine. This and other entomopathogenic fungi are understudied sources for the discovery of new bioactive molecules. In this study, PacBio SMRT long read sequencing technology was used to sequence the genome of C. militaris with a focus on the genetic potential for secondary metabolite production in the...
