“…As shown in Figure 1, the monophyly of Pleurotaceae received strong support, which was in agreement with the monophyletic status of Pleurotaceae within the polyphyletic pleurotoid-lentinoid fungi as inferred based on nuclear gene sequences (Thorn et al 2000). Our results also showed that the evolutionary relationships among Agaricales, Russulales, Polyporales,…”

The complete mitochondrial genome of the edible fungus Pleurotus eryngii (oyster mushroom) was determined using Illumina sequencing. This mitogenome is a circular molecule of 72,650 bp in length with a GC content of 26.28%. Gene prediction showed that 40 putative protein-coding genes, the small ribosomal RNA subunits (rns), and 23 tRNAs were located on the same strand. The mitogenome of P. eryngii has a similar structure to that of P. ostreatus in both gene content and gene order. The mitogenome information of P. eryngii should contribute to our understanding of the diversity and evolution of Pleurotaceae and Agaricales.

“…The usual methods of mushroom identification include the use of morphological characteristics of the fruit body, culturing on various media to differentiate the mycelia of different species and the use of selective inhibitors or indicator substrates [12][13][14]. Though these methods of identification are routinely used, they are difficult, time consuming and may lack accuracy in differentiating closely related species [15,16].…”

Mushooms have recently attracted attention and are exploited for food and medicinal purposes. Accurate identification of mushrooms is key in utilizing them for the benefit of humans. However, morphological identification of mushrooms is time consuming, tedious and may be prone to error. DNA markers are quick and reliable tools that are useful in mushroom taxonomy. Thus this study confirmed the identity of six Ghanaian mushrooms using the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. The ribosomal DNA-ITS fragments of genomic DNA of six wild mushrooms were amplified using ITS1 and ITS4 primers. The amplicons were sequenced and data assembled and analyzed using Bio Edit. Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) search was carried out using the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database. The data obtained from the sequence alignment were used to plot a phylogenetic tree using the Neighbor-Joining method in Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA Phylogenetic tree showed close relationship between T. elegans and T. gibbosa, V. volvacea and P. ostreatus. Molecular identification of all six mushrooms corresponded to morphological identification up to species level. This is the first report on identification of these Ghanaian mushrooms using the ITS sequences.
