Abstract

We report the draft genome sequence of Astraeus odoratus, an edible ectomycorrhizal fungus from northern Thailand. The assembled genome has a size of 45.1 Mb and 13,403 annotated protein-coding genes. This reference genome will provide a better understanding of the biology of mushroom-forming ectomycorrhizal fungi in the family Diplocystidiaceae.
