The genome sequence of the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus ((Jacq.) P. Kummer, 1871)

Abstract

We present a genome assembly from a Pleurotus ostreatus specimen (the oyster mushroom; Basidiomycota; Agaricomycetes; Agaricales; Pleurotaceae). The genome sequence is 40.6 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 12 chromosomal pseudomolecules. Two mitochondrial genomes have been assembled, which are 73.1 and 9.3 kilobases in length.
