Draft Genome Sequence Of The Termite-Associated "Cuckoo Fungus," Athelia (Fibularhizoctonia) Sp. Tmb Strain Tb5

Atheliales is a diverse order of crust-forming Basidiomycota fungi. Here, we report the draft genome of the "cuckoo fungus," Athelia (Fibularhizoctonia) sp. TMB strain TB5 (Atheliales), which forms termite-egg-mimicking sclerotia that termites tend. We further compare its repertoire of psilocybin gene homologs to homologs previously reported for Fibularhizoctonia psychrophila.
