Just noticed that the [[JGI]] has released the Cochliobolus heterostrophus genome sequence at their site predicting 9,633 protein-coding genes. Torrey Mesa Research Institute had access to a sequence many years ago, but it isn’t until now that public version of this genome is available. Cochliobolus is has been a model plant pathogen system and its production of T-Toxin by a PKS gene (Yang et [...]
Another asexual species of fungi also has evidence for the meiosis-specific process of Repeat Induced Point-mutations (RIP). [...]
Reverting CUG tRNA from derived change coding for serine back to leucine (standard code) has profound effect on [...]

We’re excited that a Penicillium marneffei grant to 
The [[Trichoderma reesei]] genome paper was recently published in Nature Biotechnology from Diego Martinez at [[LANL]] with collaborators at [[JGI]], [[LBNL]], and others. This fungus was chosen for sequencing because it was found on canvas tents eating the cotton material suggesting it may be a good candidate for degrading cellulose plant material as part of cellulosic ethanol [...]
