Genome Sequence of Bjerkandera adusta Strain Dec 1, a Basidiomycete Secreting DyP-Type Peroxidase.

We report the draft genome sequence of Bjerkandera adusta Dec 1, a basidiomycete that was isolated from the soil in Yokohama, Japan, using the Illumina HiSeq platform. B. adusta Dec 1 was identified as a fungus that degrades persistent anthraquinone dyes, and the novel peroxidase DyP was responsible for this degradation.
