Transcriptomics Analysis of Primordium Formation in Pleurotus eryngii.

ABSTRACT: Primordium formation is an important stage preceding the growth and development of the Pleurotus eryngii fruiting body. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying primordium formation remain unclear. In the present study, comparative transcriptomics was performed between mature mycelia and primordium to analyze the transcriptional properties during primordium formation in P. eryngii. A total of 19,655 differentially expressed genes (10,718 upregulated genes and 8937 downregulated genes) were identified. These differentially expressed genes were involved in cell wall degradation, carbohydrate hydrolysis, light perception, and cAMP signal transduction. These results aid further understanding of the transcriptional changes and the molecular processes underlying primordium formation and differentiation, which may lay the foundation for improving the cultivation and quality control of P. eryngii.
