Abstract

The truffle genome The genome of the Périgord black truffle Tuber melanosporum Vittad., a gourmet delicacy that grows symbiotically on the roots of European oak, has been sequenced. This is the largest and most complex fungal genome so far sequenced. The genome is unusually gene-poor, but rich in the mobile genetic elements known as transposons. Comparison with the sequence of Laccaria bicolor, another ectomycorrhizal symbiotic fungus, reveals contrasting gene sets reflecting two different molecular toolkits that have evolved independently to fit the root symbiont lifestyle. Cultivation of the truffle is a complicated process, and most truffles are still harvested from the wild. So the analysis of genetic traits related to fruiting and symbiosis could help boost crop production and make black truffles more widely available.
