Complete mitochondrial genome of the edible Basidiomycete mushroom (Aphyllophorales: Thelephoraceae) from China.

The complete mitochondrial genome of , an edible Basidiomycete mushroom species with ecological and economic value is reported in this study. The whole genome is a circular molecule 50,672 bp in length and encodes 42 genes as follows: 15 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes and 25 tRNA genes. The A, T, C, G contents in the genome are 35.60%, 35.31%, 13.89%, and 15.20%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a close relationship between and . This is the first complete mitochondrial genome for that will be useful for providing basic genetic information for this important species.
