title: Draft genome sequence of Talaromyces verruculosus ("Penicillium verruculosum") strain TS63-9, a fungus with great potential for industrial production of polysaccharide-degrading enzymes.
abstract: Talaromyces verruculosus has long been known to be a supreme cellulase and antimicrobial extrolite producer. Here we report the draft genome of T. verruculosus strain TS63-9, which has a very high pectinase activity. The assembled draft genome is 37.35 Mbp with 11,447 predicted protein-coding genes, among which 532 are annotated to be carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) and 225 are polysaccharide-degrading enzymes.
