Genome sequence of Emydomyces testavorans type strain 16-2883 (ATCC TSD-145), an onygenalean fungus associated with freshwater aquatic turtle shell lesions.

ABSTRACT

Emydomyces testavorans is an onygenalean keratinophilic fungus associated with shell and skin lesions in freshwater aquatic turtles. The genome sequence presented here includes five contigs (ranging in size from 2.8 to 9.8 Mb; 31.8 Mb total; 40% GC) and a 92.2-kb mitochondrial genome. The nuclear genome predicted 7,550 genes.
