Genome Assembly and Analyses of the Macrofungus .

() is a macrofungus genus that contains a big number of fairly fleshy gilled mushrooms with white spores. This macrofungus produces diverse bioactive compounds, antioxidants, and water-soluble polysaccharides. However, the genomic resources of this species remain unknown. Here, we assembled the genome of (41.23 Mb) into 336 scaffolds with a N50 size of 374,455 bp and compared it with the genomes of eleven other macrofungi. Comparative genomics study confirmed that belonged to the genus, a stand-alone genus different from the genus. In addition, we found that glycosyl hydrolase family 28 (GH28) in shared conserved motifs that were significantly different from their counterparts in . The genomic resource uncovered by this study will enhance our understanding of fungi biology, especially the differences in their growth rates and energy metabolism.
