Draft genome sequence of the deep-sea ascomycetous filamentous fungus Cadophora malorum Mo12 from the mid-atlantic ridge reveals its biotechnological potential

Abstract

Cadophora malorum Mo12 was isolated from the Rainbow hydrothermal site on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. We present the draft genome sequence of this filamentous fungal strain, which has high biotechnological potentials as revealed by the presence of genes encoding biotechnologically important enzymes and genes involved in the synthesis of secondary metabolites.
