  • Publication number: 20250333805
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a new Hericium erinaceus strain HE015, and a molecular marker and use thereof. Wild fungi are widely collected throughout China and subjected to systematic strain breeding to obtain a new fine-quality Hericium erinaceus strain HE015. The strain HE015 was preserved in Guangdong Microbial Culture Collection Center on May 12, 2022 with an accession number of GDMCC No: 62464. The genetic background of the strain is obviously different from that of the existing Hericium erinaceus species; therefore, the new strain is of important value and significance in supplementing fine-quality cultivated Hericium erinaceus varieties, meeting the market demand and promoting high-quality development of the industry. The present invention further provides a specific molecular marker and a rapid detection method for detecting and identifying the strain HE015.

  • Publication number: 20240102111
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a molecular marker, a specific primer pair, and an identification method of the high-quality Ganoderma lucidum strain HMGIM-M624. The high-quality Ganoderma lucidum strain HMGIM-M624 was preserved in Guangdong Microbial Culture Collection Center (address: 5th Floor, No. 59 Building of No. 100 Yard, Mid. Xianlie Road, Guangzhou City) with the preservation number of GDMCC No: 60889 on Nov. 7, 2019. The molecular marker is an InDel molecular marker. The high-quality Ganoderma lucidum strain HMGIM-M624 has a base deletion of CATGCTGTA at the 246451th-246460th site of the chromosome sca34. The present invention provides reagents for detecting the molecular marker of the high-quality Ganoderma lucidum strain HMGIM-M624. The reagents can distinguish the high-quality Ganoderma lucidum strain HMGIM-M624 from the other 11 G. lucidum strains for commercial cultivation, thus specifically identifying the high-quality Ganoderma lucidum strain HMGIM-M624.
