Genome Sequences of Eight Aspergillus flavus spp. and One A. parasiticus sp. Isolated from Peanut Seeds in Georgia

摘要

Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus fungi produce carcinogenic mycotoxins in peanut seeds, causing considerable impact on both human health and the economy. Here, we report nine genome sequences of Aspergillus spp., isolated from Georgia peanut seeds in 2014. The information obtained will lead to further biodiversity studies that are essential for developing control strategies.
