This document discusses a project on myco-diesel production. It summarizes that the filamentous fungal endophyte Ascocoryne sarcoides was shown to produce potential biofuel metabolites when grown on a cellulose medium. The genomic characterization of A. sarcoides is presented using transcriptomic and metabolomic data to describe genes involved in cellulose degradation and potential biofuel production pathways. Over 80 biosynthetic clusters were identified, including some previously only found in plants.
