The complete mitochondrial genome of Hericium coralloides (Hericiaceae, Basidiomycota).

ABSTRACT: In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the medicinal mushroom Hericium coralloides (Hericiaceae, Basidiomycota) was sequenced. This mitochondrial genome is 72,961?bp in length and consisted of 14 protein-coding genes, 21 hypothetical open reading frames, 2 ribosomal RNA subunits and 27 transfer RNAs. The overall nucleotide composition of is 41.33% A, 40.71% T, 9.06% C and 8.90% G, with GC content of 17.96%. A phylogenetic tree with the complete mitochondrial genome sequences of Hericium coralloides together with 9 other affinis mushrooms was constructed. The newly achieved mitochondrial genome sequence seem to be useful for addressing taxonomic issues and studying related evolution events, which would contribute to enrich the fungal mitochondrial genome resource and promote the biological research.
