Most of the sequenced wood-rotting edible mushroom produce fruiting body at relatively low temperatures. Little information has been known about the high-temperature wood-rotting mushroom. Here, we performed de novo sequencing and assembly of the genome of a high-temperature edible mushroom Pleurotus giganteus from a monokaryotic strain zhudugu2 using the Illumina and Pac-Bio CLR sequencing technologies. P. giganteus, also known as Zhudugu in China, is a well-known culinary edible mushroom that has been widely distributed and cultivated in China, Southeast Asia, and South Asia. The genome consists of 40.00 Mb in 27 contigs with a contig N50 of 4.384 Mb. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that P. giganteus and other strains in Pleurotus clustered in one clade. Phylogenetic analysis and average nucleotide identity analysis indicated that the P. giganteus genome showed a closer relationship with other Pleurotus species. Chromosome collinearity analysis revealed a high level of collinearity between P. ostreatus and P. giganteus. There are 12,628 protein-coding genes annotated in this monoploid genome. A total of 481 enzymes accounting for 514 carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) terms were identified in the P. giganteus genome, including 15 laccases and 10 class II peroxidases predicted in the genome, which revealed the robustness of lignocellulose degradation capacity of P. giganteus. The mating-A type locus of P. giganteus consisted of a pair of homeodomain mating-type genes HD1 and HD2. The mating-B type locus of P. giganteus consisted of at least four pheromone receptor genes and three pheromone genes. The genome is not only beneficial for the genome-assisted breeding of this mushroom but also helps us to understand the high-temperature tolerance of the edible mushroom.

Introduction

Pleurotus giganteus is a culinary edible mushroom that has been recorded in tropical and subtropical regions, such as China, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand, and has been commercially cultivated in recent years (Karunarathna et al., 2012; Phan et al., 2019). P. giganteus is known as “Zhudugu” in China due to the organoleptic properties that resemble pork stomach, and it is also named “Dabeisangu,” “Dabeixungu,” “Dalougougu,” “Dabeixianggu,” and “Sungu” in China because that the mature fruiting body of P. giganteus is like a goblet and funnel (Phan et al., 2019). P. giganteus is a wood-rotting fungus that uses sawdust and cottonseed hull as the main growth substrates. Soil casing methods are the major method for the fruiting production of this mushroom, either buried on the ground or the shelf in the factory. P. giganteus was also regarded as a multi-functional food supplement due to the high levels of nutrients and bioactive compounds in this species, such as polysaccharide, uridine, lipids, and feruloyl esterase, with neurite outgrowth, antioxidant, anti-candida, antitumor, hepatoprotective, and amylase inhibitory activities (Phan et al., 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015; Wang et al., 2014; Tian et al., 2016; Baskaran et al., 2017; Debnath et al., 2019).

By studying the mating system, Dong et al. (2010) Reported that P. giganteus has a typical tetrapolar heterothallic mating system. The distribution of the four mating types among spore monokaryons was ∼1:1:1:1 (Dong et al., 2010; Yu et al., 2021). Intraspesies et al. (2020) selected new hydrides of P. giganteus with high biological efficiency using intraspecific mating (Intraspesies et al., 2020; Li et al., 2021). Bioactive compounds and the mating system of this mushroom have been studied for many years; however, molecular and genetic studies on P. giganteus are rare due to the lack of genomic information. Owing to the advent of single-molecule real-time sequencing technologies, the continuity of mushroom genome assemblies [such as Lentinus edodes (Zhang et al., 2021; Yu et al., 2022), Agrocybe cylindracea (Liang et al., 2020), Auricularia heimuer (Yuan et al., 2019; Fang et al., 2020), Stropharia rugosoannulata (Li et al., 2022), Russula griseocarnosa (Yu et al., 2020), Hericium erinaceus (Gong et al., 2020), Phellinus gilvus (Huo et al., 2020), etc.] reached several orders of magnitude higher when compared with Illumina assemblies.

Here, we report a high-quality de novo genome assembly of P. giganteus through a combination of PacBio CLR and Illumina sequencing. Comparative analysis was conducted between the genome of P. giganteus and the other 23 published fungi genomes. Repeat sequences, carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), lignocellulose degradation enzymes, mating related genes were also analyzed. The P. giganteus genome sequence will help understand the molecular mechanisms and evolution of this important edible mushroom.

Materials and methods

Strains and culture condition

The P. giganteus strain “Shen Xun 1 Hao” was selected for de novo genome sequencing and maintained in the Improved and Standardized Spawn Breeding Center (ISSBC), Shanghai Academy of Agricultural Sciences, China. The strain was domesticated from the wild strain collected in Fujian province in China and identified as a new mushroom variety by Shanghai Agricultural Technology Promotion Center. The P. giganteus strains “Shen Xun 1 Hao” were cultivated and maintained on potato dextrose agar (PDA) plates. For fruiting body production, strain Shen Xun 1 Hao was inoculated into the solid media [40% (w/w) sawdust, 40% (w/w) cottonseed hull, 18% (w/w) wheat bran, and 2% (w/w) gypsum powder] in the polypropylene bag. Vegetative growth of P. giganteus mycelia was carried out at 25°C with a humidity of 70-80%. After the mycelia occupied the full culture bag, the polypropylene bag was open and soil was covered on the top of the media. The fruiting body formed under the stimulation of temperature, water, and light. The monokaryotic strain zhudugu2 was obtained by selecting from the protoplasm of the strain “Shen Xun 1 Hao.”

Genome sequencing

One monokaryon (zhudugu2) of the dikaryon strain “Shen Xun 1 Hao” was originally isolated by protoplast monokaryotization (Zhao and Chang, 1993). The obtained monokaryon zhudugu2 was cultured on 20 Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) plates covered with cellophane at 25°C in darkness for 16 days. These mycelia were then collected, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and used for genome sequencing and chromosome-level genome construction. The genome of strain zhudugu2 was extracted using the NucleoBond HMW DNA kit (Macherey-Nagel, Düren, Germany). The concentration and quality of the DNA were analyzed using Thermal Nanodrop One (United States, CA) and Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer System (United States, CA). The P. giganteus genome was sequenced using Illumina NovaSeq 6000 (paired-end, 2 × 150 bp, insert size, 400 bp) and PacBio Sequel sequencing platforms (CLR mode) by Personalbio Technology (Shanghai, China).

Genome assembling and gene prediction

The PacBio reads were de novo assembled using Falcon and CANU software (Koren et al., 2017). Illumina sequencing reads were filtered using FastQC software. The assembled contigs were corrected using pilon v1.24 software Illumina short reads (Walker et al., 2014). The assembly completeness was evaluated with QUAST v5.1.0rc1 software (Gurevich et al., 2013) with the Illumina reads. The ab initio gene prediction was performed using Augustus v 3.03, glimmerHMM v 3.0.1, and GeneMark-ES v 4.35 software (Majoros et al., 2004; Stanke et al., 2006; Ter-Hovhannisyan et al., 2008). The predicted genes were integrated using EVidenceModeler v r2012-06-25 software (Haas et al., 2008). The completeness of the assembled genome was also evaluated using BUSCO v5.1.2 software with comparison to lineage dataset fungi_odb10 (creation date: 2020-09-10, number of BUSCO markers: 758) (Manni et al., 2021). Repeat sequence was analyzed using RepeatModeler and RepeatMasker software (Chen, 2004; Flynn et al., 2020). RepBase database was used to predict sequences similar to known repeat sequences. Ab initio structure prediction was performed using RepeatModeler software. RepeatMasker was used to make the prediction using the constructed repeat sequence library.

Functional annotation

Functional annotations of the predicted protein-coding sequences (CDSs) were obtained using eggNGOmapper software (Cantalapiedra et al., 2021). Pfam and SwissProt function annotation was performed by sequence alignment against Pfam-A database (database version: Pfam35.0) and SwissProt database (2022-04-30) by Hmmer 3.3.2 and diamond 0.9.21, respectively.

Comparative genomic analysis

The pairwise average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between genomes were analyzed using FastANI software (Jain et al., 2018). Collinearity analysis was performed by MCScanX-jcvi software based on the protein sequence from the GFF3 files of P. giganteus, P. ostreatus, and Agaricus bisporus (Wang et al., 2012). Gene families and single-copy orthologous genes were analyzed using OrthoFinder v2.5.4 software (Emms and Kelly, 2019). The species tree was constructed using concatenate single-copy orthologous genes and visualized using FastTree software (Price et al., 2009).

Identification of CAZymes

Annotation of CAZymes for the genome of P. giganteus was performed using dbcan version v3.0.2 software (Cantarel et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2018). The database was downloaded from the dbCAN meta server1 (version of the database is V10). Hmmer software was used for the annotation of proteins with default parameters (HMMER E-Value < 1e-15, HMMER Coverage > 0.35).

Identification of the mating locus

The mating-type locus of P. giganteus was analyzed using sequence alignment with diamond software (Buchfink et al., 2015). Mating type genes in other Pleurotus strains as the reference sequences. The genome of P. eryngii ATCC90797 was downloaded from the MycoCosm portal of the Joint Genome Institution (JGI). The A mating type locus of strain ATCC90797 is in scaffold1 between 196670 and 871073, and the B mating type locus is in scaffold49 between 196670 and 254852. The genome of P. ostreatus strain PC9 was also downloaded from the JGI database. The A mating type locus of strain PC9 is in scaffold4 between 2032971 and 2039163. Gene cluster structure was visualized using integrative genomics viewer software (Thorvaldsdóttir et al., 2013).

Results and discussion

Cultivation of Pleurotus giganteus and monokaryotic strain isolation

Figure 1 showed the cultivation situation and the main process of fruiting body development of P. giganteus (Shanghai, China, by our lab). At the S1 primordium stage, mycelium kinked to form fruiting body. The S2 growing stage showed the continued growth period after primordium formation. S3 phase is the elongation stage and the fruiting bodies continue to grow until the funnel is formed at this stage. S4 is the harvest stage when the fruiting body grew to 70–80% maturity and the cap is funnel-shaped. At mature stage S5, the fruiting body was fully mature and the cap was in the shape of a large funnel. The monokaryotic zhudugu2 strain was isolated from the protoplasm of the “Shen Xun 1 Hao” strain (Figure 1C). Figures 1C,D show the mycelia of the dikaryotic and monokaryotic mycelia of P. giganteus, respectively, and no clamp connection was observed on monokaryotic mycelia (Figure 1D).

Genome assembly and annotation of Pleurotus giganteus

The genome of the P. giganteus zhudugu2 strain was sequenced using PacBio and Illumina sequencing platforms. A total of 36,251,924 clean reads (∼130 ×) were obtained from Illumina sequencing which was used for k-mer analysis and genome polish. GenomeScope was used to generate a histogram of the depth distribution of the sequencing (k = 19) (Supplementary Figure 1). A single k-mer coverage peak was observed and the heterozygous rate was 0.02%. The results confirmed that strain zhudugu2 was monokaryotic. The approximately 877,248 million clean Nanopore reads (∼200 ×) were de novo assembled into 27 contigs with an N50 of 2.61 Mbp and an N90 of 1.36 Kbp. The total sequence length was 40,035,591 bp (Table 1) and the length of the largest contig is 4.38 Mbp (Figure 2). The GC content of P. giganteus genome was 50.5%. The integrity of the genome was evaluated using QUAST v5.1.0 software and determined to be 98.2%. The size of the P. giganteus genome is similar to those of other species in the Pleurotus genus. It a little larger than those of Pleurotus tuber-regium, Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus citrinopileatus, but less than the genome size of Pleurotus eryngii and Pleurotus tuoliensis. The GC content of P. giganteus is similar to most of the Pleurotus species but larger than those of the P. tuber-regium strains.

Repeat sequence was identified using RepeatMasker based on homology alignment and ab initio prediction and accounted for 11.36% of the P. giganteus genome (Figure 2B). The majority of repetitive sequences were LTR retrotransposons (5.01%), where 0.17% and 0.52% of the repeat element types were DNA transposons and simple repeats (Table 2). However, no LINEs and Satellites were predicted in the P. giganteus genome.

A total of 12,628 gene models were predicted from the genome of P. giganteus with an average sequence length of 1761 bp. The concatenated length of CDSs was 2.22 Mbp, which accounted for 55.5% of the total genome (Supplementary Tables 1, 2). Of the identified genes, 9801 (77.6%) and 5494 (43.5%) genes were annotated by the EggNOG database and SwissProt database, respectively. Based on the similarity of protein domains, 7802 (61.8%) genes were annotated by the Pfam database. The completeness of P. giganteus genome assembly and gene prediction was also evaluated using the BUSCO software with fungi_odb10. The completeness of the zhudugu2 genome was 94.2% (Supplementary Figure 2). These results and the assembly parameters indicated that we generated a high-quality genome of P. giganteus.

Comparative genomic analysis

Pleurotus giganteus was originally described as Lentinus giganteus and Panus giganteus due to its different fruiting body shapes at different stages in the life cycle (Samantha et al., 2016; Phan et al., 2019). Karunarathna et al. (2012) have corrected the classification of this strain to the Pleurotus genus based on ITS sequences (Samantha et al., 2016). To confirm the evolutionary relationship of P. giganteus, a comparative analysis of the P. giganteus genome and 23 fully sequenced fungi genomes (21 Basidiomycetes and 2 Ascomycetes) was performed. A phylogenetic tree constructed based on conserved single-copy orthologous gene alignment showed that P. giganteus had a close evolutionary relationship with other Pleurotus species (Figure 3). The strains in Pleurotus species were clustered into two main clades. P. giganteus, P. tuber-regium, P. citrinopileatus, and P. salmoneostramineus form one clade, while the other seven species formed the other clear clade. P. giganteus showed a closer evolutionary relationship with P. tuber-regium and P. citrinopileatus. Indeed, the fruiting bodies of the three species shared similar characteristics. They all have a complete circle cap with a dent in the middle, which look like a funnel. However, the fruiting body of the species on the other clade has a round cap on one side and a notch on the other side.

Figure 3. Comparison of genomes between P. giganteus with other 23 fungal species (21 Basidiomycetes and 2 Ascomycetes). The evolutionary relationship analysis was constructed based on 312 single-copy orthologous gene. Tree scale = 0.2.

Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) analysis is a high-resolution taxonomic analysis method. To further confirm the evolutionary relationship, ANI analysis was performed to estimate genomic differences and relatedness between Pleurotus strains’ genomes. As a result in Figure 4, Pleurotus species in Clade B in the species tree showed lower genomic similarities (74 to 75%) with each other and Pleurotus species in Clade A. Whereas species in Clade A showed high genomic similarities between each other (85 to 100%). In a word, the results above confirmed that P. giganteus belong to the genus of Pleurotus according to the current classification.

FIGURE 4

Figure 4. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) values based on the fastANI algorithm generated matrix for Pleurotus genomes. The clustering was constructed using Euclidean distance matrix.

To explore the genetic factor for the fruiting body shape and thermo-adaptation of P. giganteus, orthogroups of five commercially produced Pleurotus species were analyzed (Supplementary Table 4). As shown in Supplementary Figure 3 P. giganteus and P. tuber-regium shared 142 orthogroups that were missed in the other three species. Both P. giganteus and P. tuber-regium have a cup-shaped fruiting body and are distributed in the tropical zone. Therefore, these 142 orthogroups might related with fruiting body shape and thermo-adaptation. The 142 orthogroups contain 353 genes in P. giganteus genome, and 164 were annotated by the Pfam database (Supplementary Table 5). According to the Pfam annotation, most of these 164 genes were related to regulation, transposon, and protein digestion. For example, 43 genes contained F-box-like domain, which was first characterized as components of SCF ubiquitin-ligase complexes (Kipreos and Pagano, 2000). Ubiquitin was related with many important biological processes including thermotolerance (Panek et al., 2020; Zhang et al., 2022). The process of ubiquitination plays a key role in plants’ thermotolerance by eliminating denatured proteins (Zhang et al., 2022). In our previous study, proteins related to the ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process were enriched in heat-shock-induced proteins (Xu et al., 2021), which also indicates that ubiquitination played a key role in thermotolerance in mushroom. Therefore, regulation of gene expression, protein expression, and protein degradation might one of the important reasons for the characteristics of fruiting body shape and thermo-adaptation of P. giganteus. A detailed molecular mechanism needs to be investigated through differential expression analysis of genes or proteins in these species.

Chromosome collinearity analysis of P. giganteus and other two edible mushrooms, which have chromosome levels of the genome, was performed using JCVI and MCScanX software (Figure 5). The results revealed high levels of collinearity between P. ostreatus and P. giganteus. According to the collinearity results, contig 5 and contig 13 may belong to the same chromosome, contig 9, 14, and 15 may belong to the same chromosome, and contig 12, 16, 17, and 20 may belong to the same chromosome. The connection of these contigs could be further confirmed using PCR or Hi-C technology (Teh et al., 2017). Rupture and fusion events were identified in contig 5, contig 8, contig 15, contig 9, contig 3 of P. giganteus compared to chromosomes from A. bisporus. More rupture and fusion events occurred between P. giganteus and A. bisporus than those between P. ostreatus and P. giganteus, which is in accordance with the phylogenetic analysis results.

CAZymes in Pleurotus giganteus genome

CAZymes are one of the most important gene families in the fungal genome, which are responsible for lignocellulose degradation and many other biological processes, such as development and stress response (Garron and Henrissat, 2019; Pallister et al., 2020). A total of 481 enzymes accounting for 514 CAZymes terms were identified in the P. giganteus genome with Hmmer software, including 232 GHs, 72 GTs, 23 PLs, 27 CEs, 139 AAs, and 21 CBMs (Figure 6A and Supplementary Table 3). The CAZymes of other 23 fungal species were analyzed using the same parameters with dbCAN2 database. As shown in Figure 6B, the number of CAZymes in P. giganteus is a little less than those in other Pleurotus species, except for P. eryngii and P. tuoliensis. The different CAZymes number might be caused by gene prediction methods, structural variation of genome, and alignment parameters. It can be sure that P. giganteus also has a powerful lignocellulose degradation capacity just like other members of Pleurotus genus. The results are consistent with the production processed, that we can use different lignocellulosic biomass to produce P. giganteus fruiting body.

The strain names of these fungi are the same as those in Figure 3. GH, glycoside hydrolase; GT, glycosyltransferase; PL, polysaccharide lyase; CE, carbohydrate esterase; CBM, carbohydrate-binding module; AA, auxiliary activity.

Pleurotus giganteus had 139 AAs. Proteins in the AA category were mainly distributed in AA3, AA9, AA7, AA5, AA1, and AA2 families (Supplementary Table 3). Proteins in AA3 and AA9 categories were related to the degradation of cellumose and hemicellulose. The lignin-degrading enzymes, such as laccases and manganese peroxidases, were in the AA1 and AA2 categories. A total of 15 laccases and 10 class II peroxidases were annotated in the genome of P. giganteus with SwissProt database. These enzymes play key roles in the degradation of plant cell wall components (Manavalan et al., 2015; Suryadi et al., 2022). Therefore, the results indicated a robustness lignocellulose degradation of this strain, which is in consistent with the woody materials used in the fruiting body production.

Identification of the mating locus

Mating-type genes from P. ostreatus PC9 and P. eryngii ATCC 90797 were used as query sequences for the alignment to identify mating type locus in strain zhudugu2. The A mating type locus of P. giganteus was on scaffold 1. The total length of the locus was over 4 kb, consisting of two homeodomain genes (HD) of similar sizes. The two HD genes were transcribed in opposite directions as in P. ostreatus (Figure 7A) (Ju et al., 2020). Different from P. ostreatus PC9 and P. giganteus zhudugu2, P. eryngii ATCC 90797 has one HD1 gene and one HD2 gene transcribed in opposite directions and one extra HD2 gene is located on the other side of HD1. The amino acid sequence showed 52.7 and 51.1% sequence similarity with the HD1 in P. ostreatus PC9 and P. eryngii ATCC 90797, respectively. The HD2 showed 57.4 and 50.0% (49.5%) sequence similarity with those in strain PC9 and ATCC 90797, respectively.

Four pheromone receptor genes (STE3.1-STE3.4) and 3 pheromone genes (PHB3.1-PHB3.3) were predicted and clustered in a ∼45 kb gene cluster (Figures 7B,C). TMHMM prediction showed that all four pheromone receptors contained 7 trans-membrane domains. The gene organization of the B mating locus is different from that in P. eryngii (Ju et al., 2020) and Pleurotus djamor (James et al., 2004), which indicated the B mating type locus has evolved through multiple events of genome rearrangement like in other mushroom such as in Flammulina velutipes (Wang et al., 2016) and Lentinula edodes (Ha et al., 2019). The information provided here is important for the development of molecular markers for crossbreeding of P. giganteus.

Conclusion

In summary, this is the first report of the whole genome of P. giganteus. Integrity, completeness, and collinearity analysis revealed the high quality of genome assembly. Comparative genome analysis confirmed that P. giganteus should be classified as Pleurotus genus instead of Lentinus and Panus. Identification of CAZymes revealed that P. giganteus had robustness lignocellulose degradation capacity. Repeat sequence analysis and mating locus could be used for the development of molecular markers in strain identification and breeding. The P. giganteus genome provided insights for basic research on the cultivation, nutrition, and medicinal utility of this mushroom.
