Yield increment and transcriptome response caused by blue light treatment in Hericium coralloides.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hericium coralloides is a traditional edible and medicinal mushroom. Light is a key factor in forming fruiting bodies of fungi; however, the effects of different light on the yield and morphogenesis of H. coralloides are still unknown. Therefore, the morphology, yield, and transcriptome of H. coralloides under blue, red, and white light conditions were investigated.

Result

Fruiting bodies under blue light exhibited superior morphological traits, such as milky white color, larger size, elongated stalks, and higher spine count, leading to higher yields. Different light treatments led to dramatic transcriptome changes ranging from 10,827 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) induced by blue light in Blue-4d to 11,375 DEGs induced by red light in Red-4d and accounted
