Aspergillus is a large genus of filamentous fungi that encompasses many species of medical, agricultural, industrial, and scientific importance.



ANNOUNCING the release of the Aspergillus clavatus NRRL 1 genome assembly and annotation (build 1.1) in Map Viewer. Take a moment to BLAST your favorite gene sequence against the genome and explore the maps available for viewing.

Additional Aspergillus genomes available for viewing in Map Viewer include the Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 genome assembly (build 2.1) and the Aspergillus niger CBS 513.88 genome assembly (build 1.1).
