Genome sequencing and assembly of Vishniacozyma victoriae D19
In a collaborative effort between the University of Environmental and Life Sciences in Wroclaw and UMR SPO, INRAE Montpellier, we sequenced the genome of Vishniacozyma victoriae strain D19, isolated from coastal sediment collected at Korsvika Beach, Trondheim, Norway. This project aims to generate a high-quality genome assembly and annotation for V. victoriae, a yeast species within the Vishniacozyma genus. Currently, genomic resources for this taxonomic group remain scarce. The resulting dataset will contribute to a better understanding of the genetic makeup, ecological roles, and potential biotechnological applications of Vishniacozyma species.
