Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the medical fungus Ganoderma resinaceum Boud., 1889 (Polyporales: Ganodermataceae).

Abstract

The medical mushroom Ganoderma resinaceum Boud., 1889, is of great interest in pharmacy due to its diverse functional active ingredients. However, the mitochondrial genome of G. resinaceum remains unexplored. Here, we present the complete mitochondrial genome of G. resinaceum, which spans 67,458 bp and has a GC content of 25.65%. This genome encompasses 15 core protein-coding genes, 8 independent ORFs, 15 intronic ORFs, 27 tRNAs, and 2 rRNA genes. Through phylogenetic analysis using Bayesian inference (BI), we elucidated the evolutionary relationships among 34 Basidiomycota fungi, revealing distinct clades and indicating a close relationship between G. resinaceum and G. subamboinense.
