Whole Genome Sequence of an Edible Mushroom Oudemansiella raphanipes (Changgengu)

Abstract

Oudemansiella raphanipes, considered as a well-known culinary edible mushroom with a high content of natural bioactive substances, is widely cultivated in China with the commercial name Changgengu. However, due to the lack of genomic data, molecular and genetic study on O. raphanipes is rare. To obtain a comprehensive overview of genetic characteristics and enhance the value of O. raphanipes, two mating-compatible monokaryons isolated from the dikaryon were applied for de novo genome sequencing and assembly using Nanopore and /or Illumina sequencing platforms. One of the monokaryons, O. raphanipes CGG-A-s1, was annotated with 21,308 protein-coding genes, of which 56 were predicted to be involved in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites such as terpene, type I PKS, NRPS, and siderophore. Phylogenetic and comparative analysis of multiple fungi genomes revealed a close evolutionary relationship between O. raphanipes and Mucidula mucid based on single-copy orthologous protein genes. Significant collinearity was detected between O. raphanipes and Flammulina velutipes on the synteny of inter-species genomes. 664 CAZyme genes in CGG-A-s1 were identified with GHs and AAs families significantly elevated when compared with the other 25 sequenced fungi, indicating a strong wood degradation ability. Furthermore, the mating type locus analysis revealed that CGG-A-s1 and CGG-A-s2 were conserved in the gene organization of the mating A locus but various in that of the mating B locus. The genome resource of O. raphanipes will provide new insights into its development of genetic studies and commercial production of high-quality varieties.

Complete mitochondrial genomes of edible mushrooms: features, evolution, and phylogeny

“…According to some researchers, the eukaryotic domain likely underwent several evolutionary changes in uniparental mtDNA inheritance (Wilson and Xu 2012). By offering a separate method for researching the history of life on earth, molecular dating presented a new age and strengthened the bonds among evolutionary biology, geology, and palaeontology (Douzery et al 2004, Zhu et al 2023).…”

Comparative analysis of proteomes and transcriptomes revealed the molecular mechanism of development and nutrition of Pleurotus giganteus at different fruiting body development stages

“…Adaptors were removed from raw data, and then low-quality reads were filtered using fastp software to generate clean reads. To improve the prediction results, the RNA-Seq data and previous prediction results were integrated using EVidenceModeler v r2012-06-25 software (57) as a previous report (56). The former and newly annotated information could be obtained from the Laboratory of Mushroom Prevision Breeding (see text footnote 1).…”

Population genetic structure of Hymenopellis radicata germplasm resources based on genome re-sequencing

“…The utilization of existing genomic resources and the generation of additional genomic data can help unravel the molecular basis of phenotypic variation. In recent years, molecular resources for H. radicata have expanded, including de novo transcriptome assembly ( Zhu et al, 2023 ), ISSR labeling ( Lian et al, 2023 ), and fingerprint construction ( Gong et al, 2022 ). However, these studies primarily focused on genome structure analysis, strain identification, and classification, lacking a comprehensive discussion on the genetic diversity of H. radicata strains.…”
