Novel and advanced MNP molecular markers accurately identify the genetic similarity of Hypsizygus marmoreus strains: a comparative evaluation with ISSR and antagonistic methods

mycolabadmin

Scientists developed a new DNA-based method to accurately identify different strains of king oyster mushrooms (Hypsizygus marmoreus). Using advanced genetic analysis on 32 mushroom varieties, they created a database of 369 genetic markers that can distinguish between strains with high accuracy. This new method is faster and more reliable than traditional testing methods, helping mushroom farmers and breeders maintain quality and prevent confusion between similar-looking varieties.

Asymmetric mitonuclear interactions trigger transgressive inheritance and mitochondria-dependent heterosis in hybrids of the model system Pleurotus ostreatus

mycolabadmin

This research examines how mushroom hybrids inherit different combinations of genes from their parents, specifically looking at genes in the nucleus versus the mitochondria (cellular energy factories). When mushrooms with mismatched nuclear and mitochondrial genes are crossed, some grow slowly and show stress, while others surprisingly grow very well. The study identifies which genes are activated under these conditions and how they affect mushroom production quality and yield.
