title: Illumina HiSeq2000 sequencing: Whole genome sequence of Ustilago maydis FB2
design: The extraction of the genomic DNA for the FB1 and FB2 strains of U. maydis was carried out according to Jungmann (2016). To ensure quality and purity of the DNA an additional cleaning step was carried out using the MasterPure Complete DNA & RNA purification kit (Epicenter Biotechnologies, Madison, Wisconsin, USA), according to the manufacturers protocol. The high purity DNA was subsequently sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform.
