Abstract

In this study, we report the draft genome sequence of Zygosaccharomyces mellis CA-7, isolated from purchased honey imported from Canada. The 10.19-Mb genome contains 4,963 gene models. To our knowledge, this annotated genome sequence is the first from the species Z. mellis and will contribute to a better understanding of the osmotolerance of microorganisms in high-sugar products.
