Data on the genome analysis of the wood-rotting fungus Steccherinum ochraceum LE-BIN 3174

Abstract

In the present article, we report data on the whole-genome sequencing of wood-rotting (white-rot) fungus Steccherinum ochraceum LE-BIN 3174. The S. ochraceum LE-BIN 3174 genome consists of 770 scaffolds (N50 = 62,812 bp) with the total length of assembly ∼35 Mb. The structural annotation of the genome resulted in the prediction of 12,441 gene models, among which 181 were models of tRNA-coding genes, and 12,260 – protein-coding genes. The protein-coding genes were annotated with different databases (Pfam, InterPro, eggNOG, dbCAN, and MEROPS). The whole genome sequence and functional annotation provide an important information for the deep investigation of biochemical processes that take place during the late stages of wood decomposition by Basidiomycetes. The Whole Genome project of S. ochraceum LE-BIN 3174 had been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession RWJN00000000. The version described in this work is version RWJN00000000.1. For further interpretation of the data provided in this article, please refer to the research article “Fungal Adaptation to the Advanced Stages of Wood Decomposition: Insights from the Steccherinum ochraceum” [1].
