Fungal Genet Biol. 2024 Mar 20;172:103889. doi: 10.1016/j.fgb.2024.103889. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTrichoderma is an excellent biocontrol agent, but most Trichoderma genomes remained at the scaffold level, which greatly limits the research of biocontrol mechanism. Here, we reported the chromosome-level genome of Trichoderma harzianum CGMCC20739 (Tha739), T. asperellum CGMCC11653 (Tas653) and T. atroviride CGMCC40488 (Tat488), they were assembled into 7 chromosomes, genome size were 40 Mb (10,611 genes), 37.3 Mb (10,102 genes) and 36.3 Mb (9,896 genes), respectively. The positive selected genes of three strains were a...

Identification of two genes essential for basidiospore formation during the postmeiotic stages in Pleurotus ostreatus
This study proposed a strategy for identifying the genes essential for basidiospore formation after meiotic division to determine new targets for molecular breeding. RNA-seq analysis was performed to identify P. ostreatus genes that are specifically expressed in the gill tissue of fruiting bodies, where basidiospore formation occurs. Transcriptome data during fruiting development of Coprinopsis cinerea, in which the meiotic steps progress synchronously, were then used to identify genes that are active in the postmeiotic stages. Based on these comparative analyses, five P. ostreatus genes were identified. Plasmids containin...

Utilization of plant-derived sugars and lipids are coupled during colonization of rhizoplane and rhizosphere by the fungus Metarhizium robertsii
In conclusion, we discovered that utilization of plant-derived sugars and lipids are coupled during colonization of rhizoplane and rhizosphere by M. robertsii.PMID:38485049 | DOI:10.1016/j.fgb.2024.103886 (Source: Fungal Genetics and Biology)

Fungal microtubule organizing centers are evolutionarily unstable structures
In this study we find that loss of cilia corresponds to loss of evolutionary stability for fungal MTOCs. We used iterative search algorithms to identify proteins homologous to those found in saccharomyces cerevisiae, and schizosaccharomyces pombe MTOCs, and calculated site-specific rates of change for those proteins that were broadly phylogenetically distributed. Our results indicate that both the protein composition of MTOCs as well as the sequence of MTOC proteins are poorly conserved throughout the fungal kingdom. To begin to reconcile this rapid evolutionary change with the rigid structure and essential function of the...
