Development of a CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Editing System in Dikaryotic Ganoderma lucidum for Targeting Key CYP450 Gene Involved in Triterpenoid Synthesis.

Currently, most research on CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) gene editing in edible fungi focuses on monokaryotic strains. However, the biological mechanisms in a monokaryotic state often do not accurately reflect the actual physiological and metabolic conditions of dikaryotic….
