No genome sequence of a species from Barnettozyma, a yeast genus in the family Phaffomycetaceae, is currently available. We isolated two B. californica strains from soils in Ireland and generated draft sequences of their 11.7-Mb genomes. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis showed 20,490 differences between the strains and suggests that B. californica is haploid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
