Draft genomes of four Kluyveromyces marxianus isolates retrieved from the elaboration process of henequen ( Agave fourcroydes ) mezcal

Abstract

We report the draft genomes of four Kluyveromyces marxianus isolates obtained from the elaboration process of henequén (Agave fourcroydes) mezcal, a Mexican alcoholic beverage. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) analysis revealed that isolates derived from agave plants are distinct from those from other environments, including agave fermentations.Competing Interest StatementThe authors have declared no competing interest.
