The entomopathogenic fungus (EPF), Beauveria bassiana, is an important and commonly used EPF for microbial control. However, the role of DNA methylation has not been thoroughly studied. Therefore, the whole genomic DNA methylome of one promising EPF isolate, B. bassiana NCHU-157 (Bb-NCHU-157), was i...
