The draft genome sequence was determined for the fungus Talaromyces verruculosus (“Penicillium verruculosum”) strain TS63-9, a potential industrial cellulase producer.
The draft genome was analyzed to identify carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) and polysaccharide-degrading enzymes.
The draft genome was compared to a closely related fungus Talaromyces cellulolyticus.
