Metapochonia suchlasporia genome sequencing
This study aimed to generate and characterize the genome sequence of Metapochonia suchlasporia, a fungal strain isolated from rhizosphere soil collected at an industrial wasteland in Vieux-Charmont, France, by the Chrono-environnement laboratory, Universite Marie et Louis Pasteur. Conducted as part of the EU HORIZON-BIOSYSMO project, this work provides a genomic resource to support the investigation of fungal adaptation to complex soil environments and to improve understanding of the genetic basis of environmental fitness, metabolism, host-associated traits, and stress tolerance in this species. The availability of this genome will facilitate gene prediction, functional annotation, and comparative genomic analyses, and will serve as a valuable reference for future studies on the biology, ecology, and potential agricultural or environmental relevance of M. suchlasporia.
