Introduction: The domestication of edible mushrooms, including Flammulina filiformis, offers valuable insights into the genetic changes driven by artificial selection. Understanding these changes is crucial for uncovering the mechanisms behind genome evolution in domesticated mushrooms.
Objectives: This study aims to investigate the population structure, genetic diversity, and domestication-related genomic changes in F.
is the largest genus in the Russulales and is widespread throughout the world. Almost all species are known to be ectomycorrhizal with high ecological and edible values, and some are lethal poisonous. In this study, four new species belonging to the subgenus crown clade are identified based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence from the Xizang Autonomous Region and other provinces of China.

However, they were less studied than other mushroom groups mainly because of its unclearly phylogenetic position. In this study, we gathered 16 specimens from Southwest and Northwest China, where were the richest biodiversity areas in China, and produced their ITS and nrLSU sequences.

In this study, three specimens collected from Thailand, formed a monophyletic clade in subgenus Pseudochitonia, based on analyses of ITS sequence data.

Its Phylogeny is firstly presented by a Maximum Likelihood tree generated through DNA sequences from four gene regions of 91 species. Furthermore, a molecular dating analysis is conducted used those sequences, and it provided the divergence times of the clades within section Minores.
