Today, the genus Scedosporium comprises at least ten species with four of them, Scedosporium apiospermum, Scedosporium boydii, Scedosporium aurantiacum and Scedosporium minutisporum capable of colonizing the lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis. Scedosporium dehoogii, which is also common in the soil, has never been reported as causing human pulmonary infections. Here we report the first genome sequence for S. dehoogii, an invaluable resource to understand the genetic bases of pathogenesis in the genus Scedosporium.
