Complete genome sequence of Diaporthe vaccinii Shear, a fungal isolated from blueberry

mycolabadmin

Scientists have sequenced the complete genetic blueprint of a fungus called Diaporthe vaccinii that causes serious disease in blueberry plants. Using advanced DNA sequencing technology, they created a high-quality map of the fungus’s 60.2 million base pair genome. This genetic information will help researchers understand how the fungus causes disease and potentially develop better ways to protect blueberry crops from this costly plant pathogen.

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.
