Comparative organization of the aspergillic acid biosynthetic gene cluster in Aspergillus flavus NRRL3357, A. oryzae NRRL3483, and A. oryzae RIB40. Biosynthetic gene clusters were predicted using antiSMASH and visualized with clinker, aligned around asaC (putative NRPS-like enzyme). Gene identities were assigned based on BLASTn matches to sequences reported by Lebar et al.6. Conserved core genes (asaA, asaB, asaC, asaE) and structural variations in asaR and asaD highlight strain-specific differences in cluster architecture between A. flavus and A. oryzae.
