This study identifies novel genes and transcriptomic changes during sporulation in Coprinopsis cinerea, highlighting functionally dark genes involved in spore formation.

Stereopy provides a framework for analyzing multi-sample spatial transcriptomics data to model comparative and spatiotemporal cellular heterogeneity through three key algorithms.

This study identifies SRR1 as a conserved regulator of sporulation and ballistospory in mushroom-forming fungi, revealing its role in spore morphogenesis and identifying downstream targets.

The paper improves the functional annotation of the mushroom-forming fungus Coprinopsis cinerea by integrating a chromosome-level genome assembly with extensive expression profiling across multiple conditions.

The paper identifies a novel gene family, Snowball (snb), essential for fruiting body development in Agaricomycetes fungi, showing its role in differentiation through mutant analysis and transcriptomics.
