Abstract

MycoCosm (https://mycocosm.jgi.doe.gov/) is an integrated fungal genomics portal that currently includes over 2000 fungal genomes. Efficiently exploring these genomes allows the scientific community to address challenges associated with energy and the environment. Here, we provide examples and guidelines for navigating around MycoCosm, and for using a variety of analysis tools to compare genomics and other “omics” data from the fungus Neocallimastix californiae with its relatives.
