Genome Sequence of the Fungus Nannizziopsis barbatae, an Emerging Reptile Pathogen

Abstract

Nannizziopsis barbata is an emerging fungal pathogen capable of causing contagious dermatomycosis in reptiles. Here, we report a 31.54-Mb draft genome sequence of an isolate originating from an infected eastern water dragon in Brisbane, Australia.
