Published Genome Data

The Sanger Institute and its collaborators, Dr. David Denning and Dr. Andrew Brass at the University of Manchester, were initially funded to carry out a pilot genomic analysis of Aspergillus fumigatus . This involved preparing a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library, to fingerprint 3000 BAC clones generating a physical map and then sequencing 10 physically linked BAC clones.

The Sanger Institute was then funded to carry our a whole genome shotgun of A. fumigatus in collaboration with The Institute of Genome Research (TIGR).
