Aspergillus brevijanus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Jani section.[2] The section only contains the two species A. brevijanus and A. janus. The colonies of the members of the section have both white and green sections.[2] The species was first described in 2008.[1]
In 2016, the genome of A. brevijanus was sequenced as a part of the Aspergillus whole-genome sequencing project - a project dedicated to performing whole-genome sequencing of all members of the genus Aspergillus.[3] The genome assembly size was 36.00 Mbp.[3]
