Genomic Analysis of Talaromyces verruculosus SJ9: An Efficient Tetracycline-, Enrofloxacin-, and Tylosin-Degrading Fungus

Through the correlation analysis of the whole-genome data of <i>T. verruculosus</i> SJ9, we identified a number of genes capable of encoding antibiotic-degrading enzymes in its gene function annotation database. These antibiotic-related enzymes provide some evidence that <i>T. verruculosus</i> SJ9 can degrade fluoroquinolone antibiotics, tetracycline antibiotics, and macrolide antibiotics. In summary, the complete genome sequence of <i>T. verruculosus</i> SJ9 has now been published, and this resource constitutes a significant dataset that will inform forthcoming transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolic investigations of this fungal species. In addition, genomic studies of other filamentous fungi can utilize it as a reference. Thanks to the discoveries made in this study, the future application of this fungus in industrial production will be more rapid.
