therapeutic action: Enhanced fruiting body development

Function of Transcription Factors PoMYB12, PoMYB15, and PoMYB20 in Heat Stress and Growth of Pleurotus ostreatus

This research explores how specific genes in oyster mushrooms help them survive and grow better when exposed to heat stress. Scientists created mutant mushroom strains by either increasing or decreasing expression of three genes called PoMYB12, PoMYB15, and PoMYB20. They found that boosting PoMYB12 and PoMYB20 made mushrooms more heat-resistant and grow faster, while reducing PoMYB15 had similar beneficial effects. These discoveries could help farmers grow better oyster mushrooms during hot summer months when heat damage is a major problem.
