Whole-genome sequencing of Fusarium oxysporum K326-S isolated from tobacco

mycolabadmin

Scientists have sequenced the complete genetic code of a fungus called Fusarium oxysporum that infects tobacco plant roots, causing them to wilt and turn brown. This fungus is a major problem for tobacco farmers because it lives in soil and is difficult to control. By mapping out all 17,272 genes in this fungus, researchers now have detailed information that will help them develop better ways to prevent and manage this disease.

Genome annotation of Aspergillus melleus strain CBS 546.65

mycolabadmin

Scientists have created a detailed functional map of the Aspergillus melleus fungal genome, identifying over 12,000 genes and 102 biosynthetic gene clusters. This fungus is valuable because it produces compounds with insecticidal, nematicidal, and antibiotic properties, as well as proteases used in health supplements. The annotation provides a roadmap for understanding how this fungus makes these useful compounds and could help optimize its industrial applications.

Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of Trichoderma cornu-damae Using Hi-C Data

mycolabadmin

Researchers created a complete genetic blueprint of a poisonous mushroom called Trichoderma cornu-damae that can be mistaken for medicinal mushrooms. Using advanced DNA sequencing techniques, they mapped all seven chromosomes and identified over 8,500 genes in this toxic fungus. This genetic map will help scientists understand how the mushroom produces dangerous toxins that harm rapidly growing cells. The work provides important information for identifying and studying this poisonous species.

Whole genome sequencing and annotations of Trametes sanguinea ZHSJ

mycolabadmin

Scientists sequenced the complete genome of Trametes sanguinea, a medicinal mushroom used in traditional Chinese medicine, grown in China. The mushroom’s tissue contains beneficial compounds that may help fight tumors, protect the heart, boost immunity, and heal diabetic wounds. By mapping out all 10,886 genes in this fungus, researchers now have detailed blueprints to understand how it produces these healing compounds and potentially grow them industrially for medical use.
