Genomics and metagenomics of Madurella mycetomatis, a causative agent of black grain mycetoma in Sudan.
Madurella mycetomatis is one of the main causative agents of mycetoma, a debilitating neglected tropical disease. Improved understanding of the genomic diversity of the fungal and bacterial causes of mycetoma is essential to advances in diagnosis and treatment. Here, we describe a high-quality genom...
