Key Points

This research aims to provide the complete genome sequence of Candida sake strain UCD2293.
Isolated yeast from soil in Poolbeg, Co. Dublin, Ireland.
Conducted genome sequencing to analyze genetic material.
Assembled sequences into chromosome-sized contigs and identified mitochondrial genome.
The genome size is 14.26 Mb.
The genome was organized into 8 chromosome-sized contigs plus one mitochondrial genome contig.

Implication

Genome sequence reveals details of Candida sake isolated from Irish soil, suggesting genetic insights for yeast studies.

Abstract

Candida sake is a member of the Debaryomycetaceae family of budding yeasts. We present the genome sequence of C. sake strain UCD2293, isolated from soil at Poolbeg, Co. Dublin, in Ireland. This genome is 14.26 Mb and was assembled into 8 chromosome-sized contigs plus a mitochondrial genome contig.
