The table lists the yeast species of indicated families whose genomes were published in the form of complete sequences or permanent drafts with reasonable numbers of scaffolds (<100). Exploratory sequences (low coverage), sequence read archives, and preliminary assemblies with excessive numbers of contigs or scaffolds were ignored. Readers can find some of these additional sequences with their references in Hittinger et al. (2015). Strain numbers correspond to the reference indicated. Species in which several isolates have been sequenced in complete form or permanent drafts are indicated by bold type, and only one isolate is listed (the first one or the best one). Note that an exception was made for K. marxianus because two independent sequences of equivalent quality were published simultaneously. Species designation follows Kurtzman et al. (2011) and may, therefore, differ from original publications. Hybrid genomes and unspecified isolates are ignored.

a

Genome sizes are indicated in bold type when determined from complete sequences and in brackets when deduced from scaffolds in assemblies (figures are haploid equivalent in case of known diploid strains). Sizes ignore rDNA, mtDNA, and plasmids.

b

Numbers of chromosomes are indicated in bold type when known. Figures in brackets correspond to numbers of scaffolds in assemblies.

c

Total numbers of predicted protein-coding genes (CDS) are taken from original publications or subsequent annotations, as most appropriate. Figures in brackets represent estimate from incomplete sequence.

e

Sequence data taken from http://ygob.ucd.ie.

f

Unpublished data taken from GenBank: CCBQ000000000.1.

g

Unpublished data taken from GenBank: CP014248.1.

h

Unpublished data taken from the National BioRecource Project (www.jcm.riken.jp/cgi-bin/nbrp/nbrp_list.cgi).
