Key points

  • The complete mitochondrial genome of the widely cultivated edible fungus Lentinula edodes was determined using the next-generation sequencing technology
  • The circular molecule is 116,819 bp in length with a GC content of 30.75%
  • Conserved genes including 13 putative protein-coding genes and 24 tRNAs were located on the same strand
  • We detected 14 introns invading 4 genes, including cob, cox1, nad1, and nad5
  • The phylogenetic analysis confirmed that L. edodes was a number of Agaricales
  • This mitochondrial genome may open new avenues for understanding the phylogeny and evolution of Omphalotaceae and Agaricales

Citation abstract

The complete mitochondrial genome of the widely cultivated edible fungus Lentinula edodes was determined using the next-generation sequencing technology. The circular molecule is 116,819 bp in length with a GC content of 30.75%. Conserved genes including 13 putative protein-coding genes and 24 tRNAs were located on the same strand. We detected 14 introns invading 4 genes, including cob, cox1, nad1, and nad5. The phylogenetic analysis confirmed that L. edodes was a number of Agaricales. This mitochondrial genome may open new avenues for understanding the phylogeny and evolution of Omphalotaceae and Agaricales.
