A Gap-Free Telomere-to-Telomere Genome Assembly of Talaromyces marneffei Strain B33c Provides Insights into Chromosomal Architecture and Comparative Genomics
Talaromyces marneffei is a thermally dimorphic fungal pathogen endemic to Southeast Asia and southern China, yet chromosome-scale genomic resources from early clinical isolates remain limited. Here, we combined PacBio HiFi sequencing with Oxford Nanopore and Hi-C validation to generate a gap-free, telomere-to-telomere...
