The paper shows that Galerina indica produces both psilocybin and amatoxins, revealing horizontal gene transfer of psilocybin biosynthesis.

The paper identifies the closest wild relative of Psilocybe cubensis in sub-Saharan Africa, P. ochraceocentrata nom. prov., and shows its divergence from P. cubensis occurred 1.5 million years ago, predating cattle domestication.

Comparative mushroom genomics and fly-rearing experiments reveal an alternative psilocybin biosynthetic gene cluster in Inocybe corydalina, horizontal transfer of the canonical cluster, and incomplete defense against dipteran larvae.

This study identifies two independent origins of the psilocybin gene cluster in Psilocybe by analyzing genome sequences and phylogenetic relationships.

The paper constructs a haplotype-resolved genome for Boletus edulis using Hi-C and PacBio sequencing, revealing genetic clusters and adaptive regions in European populations.
