Improved genome assembly of <i>Candida auris</i> strain B8441 and annotation of B11205
<i>Candida auris</i> is a fungal pathogen of significant worldwide concern, typically resistant to one or more antifungal drugs. We report a completed genome for clade Ia isolate B8441 and gene annotations of clade Ic isolate B11205. These resources will support public health investigations and population genomic studies of this pathogen.
