As the aging population increases and interest in well-being increases, the importance of developing special crops increases. Natural medicine based on the special crops has been mainly used as an adjunct therapy for many diseases and symptoms based on culture, traditional medicine, and experience. In particular, it is attracting attention as a new resource to develop new drugs such as Artemisinin, a treatment for malaria. In order to efficiently use crops, it is essential to establish omics data such as genomes, transcriptomes, and metabolites of special-purpose crops. However, many special-purpose crops have large, heterogeneous and polyploid genomes that require high cost and long time to reference genome sequencing. Therefore, we built an inexpensive, fast, but very usefill reference transcriptome as the first step. We constructed high-quality reference transcriptom sets of Codonopsis lanceolata and Ixeridium dentatum with PacBio data. Our team will continue to construct reference transcriptoms of more special-purpose crops, and the data will be released by the National Agricultural Biotechnology Information Center (NABIC) in order to be widely used in agricultural as well as medical R&D.

Cynodon transvaalensis belongs to the warm-season grasses and is one of the economically and ecologically important crops. Cynodon species with high heterozygosity are difficult to assemble, so genome research has not been actively conducted. In this study, hybrid assembly was performed by sequencing with Illumina and PacBio. As a result of the assembly, the number of scaffolds and the length of N50 were 1,392, 928 kb, respectively. The completeness of the assembly was confirmed by BSUCO at 98.3%. In addition, as a result of estimating the size of the assembled genome by K-mer analysis (k=25), it was approximately ~413 Mb. A total of 37,060 cds sequences were annotated in the assembled genome, and their functions were identified through blast. After that, we try to complete the assembled genome into a pseudochromosome-level genome through Hi-C technology. These results will not only help to understand the complex genome composition of african bermudagrass, but also provide a resource for genomic and evolutionary studies of grass and other plant species.

In this study, we present the draft genome of Aureobasidium pullulans strain MHAU2101, which is the first strain to effectively control fire blight caused by Erwinia amylovora in Korea. The genome of strain MHAU2101 was composed of 28,669,322 base pairs, with a C+G content of 50.4%. The assembly comprised 17 contigs and had 99.22% completeness. The results of this study will be a valuable resource for future research on the biocontrol mechanism of A. pullulans strain MHAU2101.

This paper presents the complete genome sequence of a novel marine actinomycete, Streptomyces sp. MMBL 11-1. The genome of Streptomyces sp. MMBL 11-1 was obtained through next-generation sequencing using the PacBio Sequel system and Illumina platform provided by Macrogen, Korea. The assembled genome consists of five contigs, with a total length of 8,496,900 bp and a G+C content of 71.6%. The genome harbors multiple biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) associated with producing microbial natural products (MNPs). The comprehensive genomic information of this type of strain will serve as a valuable resource for identifying other marine actinomycetes strains.

Euglena gracilis abruptly changes its swimming direction after a sudden increase or decrease in incident light intensity, that is, step-up or step-down photophobic responses, resulting in photoavoidance or photoaccumulation, respectively. To identify the photoreceptor molecules for these UV-A/blue-light type photobehaviors, we purified a flavoprotein from isolated putative photosencory organelles (PFBs) of Euglena. The purified flavoprotein, which noncovalently bound flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), seemed to be a heterotetramer of alpha- and beta-subunits. Predicted amino acid sequences of each of the subunits were similar to each other and contained two FAD-binding domains each followed by an adenylyl cyclase catalytic domain. The purified flavoprotein actually showed adenylyl cyclase activity, being drastically elevated by blue-light irradiation. Suppression of gene expression of the flavoprotein (Photoactivated Adenylyl Cyclase, PAC) by RNA interference (RNAi) caused loss of the step-up photophobic response, demonstrating that PAC actually mediates photoavoidance of Euglena.

Malassezia pachydermatis is a commensal yeast found on the skin of dogs. However, M. pachydermatis is also considered an opportunistic pathogen and is associated with various canine skin diseases including otitis externa and atopic dermatitis, which usually require treatment using an azole antifungal drug, such as ketoconazole. In this study, we isolated a ketoconazole-resistant strain of M. pachydermatis, designated "KCTC 27587," from the external ear canal of a dog with otitis externa and analyzed its resistance mechanism. To understand the mechanism underlying ketoconazole resistance of the clinical isolate M. pachydermatis KCTC 27587, the whole genome of the yeast was sequenced using the PacBio platform and was compared with M. pachydermatis type strain CBS 1879. We found that a ~84-kb region in chromosome 4 of M. pachydermatis KCTC 27587 was tandemly quadruplicated. The quadruplicated region contains 52 protein coding genes, including the homologs of ERG4 and ERG11, whose overexpression is known to be associated with azole resistance. Our data suggest that the quadruplication of the ~84-kb region may be the cause of the ketoconazole resistance in M. pachydermatis KCTC 27587.
