Abstract

This study reports the release of draft genome sequences of two isolates of Lichtheimia corymbifera and two isolates of Lichtheimia ramosa. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that the two L. corymbifera strains (CDC-B2541 and 008-049) are closely related to the previously sequenced L. corymbifera isolate (FSU 9682) while our two L. ramosa strains CDC-B5399 and CDC-B5792 cluster apart from them. These genome sequences will further the understanding of intra-species and inter-species genetic variation within the Mucoraceae family of pathogenic fungi.
