Telomere-to-telomere genome sequence of the model mould pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus

Abstract

The fungus Aspergillus fumigatus causes invasive and chronic diseases worldwide. Here, Bowyer et al. use long-read and short-read sequencing to generate complete chromosome assemblies and telomere-to-telomere coverage for two isolates, thus providing high-quality reference genomes as fundamental resources to study this pathogen.
