Draft Genome Sequence of Aspergillus niger Strain An76

Genome Announc. 2016 Feb 18;4(1):e01700-15. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.01700-15.

Abstract

The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger has become one of the most important fungi in industrial biotechnology, and it can efficiently secrete both polysaccharide-degrading enzymes and organic acids. We report here the 6,074,961,332-bp draft sequence of A. niger strain An76, and the findings provide important information related to its lignocellulose-degrading ability.
