Status
The genome sequence and gene predictions of Aspergillus kawachii were not determined by the JGI, but were received from the Goto Masatoshi in Kyushu University on March 3 2013. (pubmed). Please note that this copy of the genome is not maintained by the author and is therefore not automatically updated. This copy of the genome does not include the mitochondrial chromosome or genes. The JGI Annotation Pipeline was used to add additional functional annotation to the author's chromosomes and proteins.
