Vanrija humicola CBS 4282 genome sequencing
The genome of the basidiomycete Vanrija humicola CBS 4282 was sequenced and assembled. Vanrija humicola is a basidiomycete yeast of the order Trichosporonales, which is a sister group to the Tremellales within the Tremellomycetes. The aim of this project was the comparison of the V. humicola genome to other Tremellomycete genomes to analyze the evolution of the mating type region, which is involved in sexual development in fungi.
