High phenotypic and genotypic plasticity among strains of the mushroom-forming fungus Schizophyllum commune

This study examines phenotypic and genotypic variation in Schizophyllum commune strains, finding high diversity in mushroom development and lignocellulose degradation, with conserved genes for these traits across genomes.

The regulatory network of the White Collar complex during early mushroom development in Schizophyllum commune

This study investigates the regulatory network of the White Collar complex in Schizophyllum commune during early mushroom development, showing light-dependent promoter binding and transcriptional activation.

Lessons on fruiting body morphogenesis from genomes and transcriptomes of Agaricomycetes

This paper identifies 921 conserved genes involved in fruiting body morphogenesis across Agaricomycetes fungi and proposes functional hypotheses for many of them.

The transcription factor Roc1 is a regulator of cellulose degradation in the wood-decaying mushroom Schizophyllum commune

This study identifies Roc1 as a key transcription factor regulating cellulose degradation in the wood-decaying fungus Schizophyllum commune through genomic and transcriptomic analyses.

Cycling in degradation of organic polymers and uptake of nutrients by a litter-degrading fungus

The paper shows that Agaricus bisporus uses synchronized hyphal activity and cyclic gene expression to degrade lignocellulose and uptake nutrients from litter.

High-throughput targeted gene deletion in the model mushroom Schizophyllum commune using pre-assembled Cas9 ribonucleoproteins

This paper describes a method for efficient gene deletion in Schizophyllum commune using pre-assembled Cas9 RNPs, showing that 250 bp homology arms are sufficient for homologous recombination.

Nucleus Specific Expression In The Multinucleated Mushroom-Forming Fungus Agaricus bisporus Reveals Different Nuclear Regulatory Programs

This study identifies transcriptomic differences between two nuclear types in Agaricus bisporus, revealing functional impacts and epigenetic influences on gene expression.
