Draft genome sequence of Aspergillus oryzae 100-8, an increased acid protease production strain

Abstract

Aspergillus oryzae is a common fungus for traditional fermentation in Asia, such as spirit, soybean paste, and soy sauce fermentation. We report the 36.7-Mbp draft genome sequence of A. oryzae 100-8 and compared it to the published genome sequence of A. oryzae 3.042.
