Draft Genome Sequence of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, an Emergent Opportunistic Pathogen

Genome Announc. 2015 Apr 9;3(2):e00201-15. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00201-15.

Abstract

Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, a yeast with valuable biotechnological features, has also been recorded as an emergent opportunistic pathogen that might cause disease in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of R. mucilaginosa strain C2.5t1, which was isolated from cacao seeds in Cameroon.
