title: Genome Sequence of Madurella mycetomatis mm55, Isolated from a Human Mycetoma Case in Sudan.
abstract: We present the first genome sequence for a strain of the main mycetoma causative agent, Madurella mycetomatis This 36.7-Mb genome sequence will offer new insights into the pathogenesis of mycetoma, and it will contribute to the development of better therapies for this neglected tropical disease.
