Project description:The genus Armillaria spp. (Fungi, Basidiomycota) includes devastating pathogens of temperate forests and saprotrophs that decay wood. Pathogenic and saprotrophic Armillaria species can efficiently colonize and decay woody substrates, however, mechanisms of wood penetration and colonization are poorly known. We assayed the colonization and decay of autoclaved spruce roots using the conifer-specialists Armillaria ostoyae and A. cepistipes using transcriptomic and proteomic data. Transcript and protein levels were altered more extensively in the saprotrophic A. cepistipes than in the pathogenic A. ostoyae and in invasive mycelia of both species compared to their rhizomorphs. Diverse suites of carbohydrate-active enzyme genes (CAZymes), in particular pectinolytic ones and expansins, were upregulated in both species, whereas ligninolytic genes were mostly downregulated. Our gene expression data, together with previous comparative genomic and decay-chemistry analyses suggest that wood decay by Armillaria differs from that of typical white rot fungi and shows features resembling soft rot. We propose that Armillaria species have modified the ancestral white rot machinery so that it allows for selective ligninolysis based on environmental conditions and/or host types.

Project description:Armillaria species are devastating forest pathogens that are among the largest terrestrial organisms on Earth. They explore hosts and achieve immense colony sizes by rhizomorphs, root-like multicellular structures of clonal dispersal. To resolve the genetic bases of their unique biology, we sequenced and analyzed genomes of 4 Armillaria species and performed RNA-Seq on 7 invasive and reproductive developmental stages. Comparison with 22 basidiomycete fungi revealed a significant genome expansion in Armillaria, affecting several pathogenicity-related genes, lignocellulose degrading enzymes and lineage-specific genes involved in rhizomorph development. Rhizomorphs express an evolutionarily young transcriptome and share their morphogenetic machinery with fruiting bodies, providing genetic and regulatory insights into complex multicellularity in fungi. Our results suggest that the evolution of the unique dispersal and pathogenicity mechanisms of Armillaria has drawn upon ancestral genetic toolkits for wood-decay, morphogenesis and complex multicellularity.
