Zymocin-like killer toxin gene clusters in the nuclear genomes of filamentous fungi.

Zymocin-like killer toxins are anticodon nucleases secreted by some budding yeast species, which kill competitor yeasts by cleaving tRNA molecules. They are encoded by virus-like elements (VLEs), cytosolic linear DNA molecules that are also called killer plasmids. To date, toxins of this type have been found only in budding yeast species (Saccharomycotina).

Draft genome sequence of the yeast strain UCD805, isolated from soil in Ireland.

is a member of the Debaryomycetaceae family in the order Saccharomycetales. Here, we present the genome sequence of UCD805, which was isolated from soil in Dublin, Ireland. This genome is 12.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Birch Tree Fungal Pathogen Taphrina betulina UCD315.

is the ascomycete yeast that causes the formation of witches' brooms in birch trees. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of , from strain UCD315, isolated from soil in Ireland. The genome is haploid and 12.
