Strain-typing of Lentinula edodes in China with inter simple sequence repeat markers

摘要

To validate strain typing by inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis in Lentinula edodes cultivars, 17 Chinese L. edodes strains including 15 cultivated strains cultivated on a large scale and two wild strains were analyzed with the ISSR technique. With the use of two ISSR primers, a total of 32 DNA products were detected, of which, 31 DNA products (96.9% of the detected products) were polymorphic between two or more strains. The profiles of those two primers could be employed to differentiate all of the tested strains. A cluster analysis based on ISSR data revealed that the 17 strains could be classified into two distinct groups. One group consisted of eight strains in which the cultivated strains were H (high-temperature)-type or B (broad-temperature)-type, and the other group comprised cultivated strains that were of the L (low-temperature)-type or M (medium-temperature)-type. In contrast to the two wild strains, the genetic diversity of 15 cultivated strains was very rich based on a similarity coefficient analysis.
