The genomes of fungi provide an important resource to resolve issues pertaining to their taxonomy, biology, and evolution. The genomes of Amanita jacksonii, Ceratocystis albifundus, a Fusarium circinatum variant, Huntiella omanensis, Leptographium procerum, Sclerotinia echinophila, and Rutstroemia sydowiana are presented in this genome announcement. These seven genomes are from a number of fungal pathogens and economically important species. The genome sizes range from 27 Mb in the case of Ceratocystis albifundus to 51.9 Mb for Rutstroemia sydowiana. The latter also encodes for a predicted 17 350 genes, more than double that of Ceratocystis albifundus. These genomes will add to the growing body of knowledge of these fungi and provide a value resource to researchers studying these fungi.
真菌基因组为解决与其分类学、生物学和进化相关的问题提供了重要资源。本基因组公告展示了豹斑鹅膏菌、白腐色二孢菌、一个轮状镰刀菌变种、阿曼胡氏菌、长喙壳菌、嗜刺核盘菌和西多红壳菌的基因组。这七个基因组来自多种真菌病原体和具有经济重要性的物种。基因组大小从白腐色二孢菌的27兆碱基到西多红壳菌的51.9兆碱基不等。后者还预测编码17350个基因，是白腐色二孢菌的两倍多。这些基因组将增加对这些真菌的认识，并为研究这些真菌的研究人员提供有价值的资源。
