The genome of the cultivated basidiomycete Agaricus bisporus Horst U1 and of its homokaryotic parents has been characterized by using an optimized method of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Expressed sequence tags obtained as expressed cDNAs from a primordial tissue-derived cDNA library and a number of previously isolated genes were used to identify the individual chromosomes of the parental lines of Horst U1. The genome consists of 13 chromosomes, and its total size is 31 Mb. For those chromosomes that could not be resolved by contour-clamped homogeneous electric field electrophoresis, the segregation of marker genes was studied in a set of 86 homokaryotic offspring of Horst U1. At least two markers were assigned to each individual chromosome. In this way all individual chromosomes were unequivocally identified. The large size difference observed between the homologous chromosomes IX, harboring the rDNA repeat, was shown to be largely due to a higher copy number of rDNA in parental strain H97 than in parental strain H39.

“…Studies of reassociation kinetics in A. bisporus showed that 16% of its genome is composed of repetitive DNA (Arthur et al, 1982). Hence, approximately 26 Mb of the A. bisporus genome is single-copy DNA.…”

“…In V. volvacea strain V34 repetitive sequences totalled 44 % of the total DNA (highly repetitive : 8 % ; moderately repetitive : 36 %) as detected by the hybridization of homologous probes cloned in pUC18 with digested genomic DNA (Chen, 1994 ;Chiu et al, 1995). This value lies between that obtained with diploid Phytophthora infestans (60%; Goodwin, Drenth & Fry, 1992) and haploid Agaricus bisporus (16 % ; Arthur et al, 1983) and Lentinula edodes (10 % ; Kulkarni, 1991). RIP is well known in Neurospora crassa and is specific to the sexual cycle (Watters & Stadler, 1995).…”
