“…In addition, all chromosomes contain a putative centromere region of variable length (Figure 3), which is, as in other fungi, characterized by high transposable element density, low gene density, absence of gene transcription and reduced CG-content (Müller et al , 2019; Smith et al , 2012; Yadav et al , 2018). Putative centromere regions were located within chromosomal regions avoid of recombination, consistent with the findings from other fungi (Laurent et al , 2018; Mancera et al , 2008; Müller et al , 2019). The exact location and length of centromere regions, however, needs to be confirmed using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (CHIPseq) as applied in other basidiomycetes (Yadav et al , 2018).…”
