CCSW
Whole-genome sequencing of a citric-acid producing wild-type strain
The <a href="http://genome.jgi-psf.org/Aspni1/Aspni1.home.html">Department of Energy (DOE) Joint Genome Institute (JGI)</a> sequenced the genome of <i>Aspergillus niger</i> strain ATCC 1015 at 8.9X coverage using whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing. The version 3.0 of the assembly (June 30, 2008) contains 8 chromosomes, made up of 21 scaffolds, and 3 unmapped scaffolds. The 7 of the 8 chromosomes and 1 unmapped scaffold contain telomeres making A. niger's genome 34.85 MB in size.
