Abstract:
We describe the annotation process for fungal genome sequencing projects, with special emphasis on protein-coding genes. The characteristics of gene structures in various fungal phyla and strength and weaknesses of the available gene prediction programs are discussed. The automated pipelines used for annotation of fungal genomes at various large-scale sequencing centers are also reviewed.
