Draft Genome Sequence of Aspergillus ochraceus Strain DY1, a Lignin-Degrading Fungus Isolated from Wood Rot.

Aspergillus spp. are known for their lignin-degrading ability and also for the degradation of complex aromatic compounds. In this paper, we present the genome sequence of Aspergillus ochraceus strain DY1, which was isolated from rotten wood in a biodiversity park. The total genome size is 35,149,223 bp, including 13,910 hits of protein-encoding genes, with a GC content of 49.92%.
