説明

<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p> The filamentous fungus <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">Aspergillus kawachii</jats:named-content> has traditionally been used for brewing the Japanese distilled spirit shochu. <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">A. kawachii</jats:named-content> characteristically hyperproduces citric acid and a variety of polysaccharide glycoside hydrolases. Here the genome sequence of <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">A. kawachii</jats:named-content> IFO 4308 was determined and annotated. Analysis of the sequence may provide insight into the properties of this fungus that make it superior for use in shochu production, leading to the further development of <jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">A. kawachii</jats:named-content> for industrial applications. </jats:p>
