A draft reference assembly of the Psilocybe cubensis genome

Using high-fidelity single-molecule sequencing, the authors produced a 46.6 Mb draft genome assembly of Psilocybe cubensis in 32 contigs (46% GC, N50 3.3 Mb) with 97.6% BUSCO completeness. The psilocybin biosynthesis cluster resides on a single 3.2 Mb contig and the dataset is available from NCBI BioProject PRJNA687911 and PRJNA700437.
