The morphogenesis of sexual fruiting bodies of fungi is a complex process determined by a
genetically encoded program. Fruiting bodies reached the highest complexity levels in the …

Fruiting bodies (sporocarps, sporophores or basidiomata) of mushroom-forming fungi
(Agaricomycetes) are among the most complex structures produced by fungi. Unlike …

We constructed a reference atlas of mushroom formation based on developmental
transcriptome data of six species and comparisons of> 200 whole genomes, to elucidate the …

Mushroom-forming fungi (Agaricomycetes) are emerging as pivotal players in several fields,
as drivers of nutrient cycling, sources of novel applications, and the group includes some of …

The development of sexual fruiting bodies is one of the most complex morphogenetic
processes in fungi. Mycologists have long been fascinated by the morphological and …

Background The transition from the vegetative mycelium to the primordium during fruiting
body development is the most complex and critical developmental event in the life cycle of …

Fruiting body formation in Agaricomycetes (Agaricomycotina) represents the most complex
developmental processes known in the fungal kingdom. Shapes range from simple …

The evolution of complex multicellularity has been one of the major transitions in the history
of life. In contrast to simple multicellular aggregates of cells, it has evolved only in a handful …

The basidiomycete fungus Coprinopsis cinerea is an important model system for
multicellular development. Fruiting bodies of C. cinerea are typical mushrooms, which can …

As part of an ongoing project to understand the molecular mechanisms of fruit body
development in Lentinula edodes (Shiitake mushroom), RNA fingerprinting by arbitrarily …
