The Nearly Complete Genome of Grifola frondosa and Light-Induced Genes Screened Based on Transcriptomics Promote the Production of Triterpenoid Compounds

mycolabadmin

Researchers sequenced the complete genetic code of maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa) and discovered how light exposure influences the production of beneficial compounds called triterpenoids. The high-quality genome assembly revealed 12,526 genes and showed that light triggers specific genes involved in making these medicinal compounds. This breakthrough provides a scientific foundation for growing maitake mushrooms with optimized levels of health-promoting substances.

Exploring the Critical Environmental Optima and Biotechnological Prospects of Fungal Fruiting Bodies

mycolabadmin

This research identifies the ideal growing conditions for fungal fruiting bodies like mushrooms, showing that temperature around 25°C, high humidity, and proper light exposure are key factors. The study reveals that exceeding these optimal conditions typically harms development more than staying slightly below them. Scientists discovered that fungal fruiting bodies have important uses in medicine, food production, and environmental cleanup, and new genetic technologies like CRISPR could improve cultivation methods for better yields and quality.
