The genome, transcriptome and metabolome of Aspergillus welwitschiae Ocstreb1 from wild halophytic rice, Oryza coarctata, indicates its distinctiveness.
An integrated omics study provides foundational insights into the endophytic potential and genomic distinctiveness of AwOcstreb1, isolated from halophytic rice, and opens new avenues for exploring A. welwitschiae for sustainable agriculture and fungal biology.
