Sequencing, assembly, and annotation of the Parascedosporium putredinis NO1 Genome

Parascedosporium putredinis NO1 is a wood-degrading ascomycete fungus. Long-strand genomic DNA was sequenced using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) MinIon system. Nanopore reads were assembled and then polished to high accuracy with Illumina reads. Annotation was performed using a transcriptome assembly from P. putredinis NO1 grown on six lignocellulosic substrates (wheat straw, empty fruit bunches from palm oil, wheat bran, sugar cane bagasse, rice straw and kraft lignin).
