Abstract
Several agricultural commodities can be infected by Aspergillus flavus, a fungus that can produce the carcinogen aflatoxin. Here, we report the whole-genome sequences for 20 georeferenced isolates collected from soil and corn under field conditions. This information contributes to an understanding of A. flavus population structure and dynamics in a field environment.
