Monascus ruber NRRL 1597 Genome sequencing

Sequencing of 1000 fungal genomes to serve as the foundation for a reference database for studies of fungal metagenomics and the fungal metabolome. Selection of target taxa will aim to sample all orders and families of fungi, as well as major ecologies and morphologies, in order to well represent phylogenetic, ecological and functional fungal diversity.

对1000个真菌基因组进行测序，旨在构建一个参考数据库，以支持真菌宏基因组学和真菌代谢组学的研究。目标物种的选择将致力于采集所有真菌的目和科，以及主要生态系统和形态，以便充分体现真菌的进化、生态和功能多样性。
