De novo genome assemblies of Neurospora tetrasperma based on Illumina HiSeq reads

This dataset contains 92 de novo genome assemblies of <i>Neurospora tetrasperma</i>, together with one assembly of a <i>N. hispaniola</i> genome (8817) and one assembly of a <i>N. sitophila genome</i> (1135). The genomes were assembled using SOAPdenovo.<br><br>Raw reads have been deposited in the Sequence Read Archive (SRA, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/) in BioProjects PRJNA238188 (paired-end reads) and PRJNA239947 (matepair reads for four of the genomes).<br><br>All strains can be ordered from the Fungal Genetics Stock Center (FGSC) at http://www.fgsc.net.<br><br>For further information on the strains and the genome assemblies, please see:<br><br>
