Assessing genetic and phenotypic diversity to advance multi-trait selection in Cyclocybe chaxingu
Abstract Cyclocybe chaxingu is a major cultivated edible mushroom in China; however, the relationship between its genetic diversity and agronomic performance remains insufficiently characterised. In this study, 100 strains were sampled, sequenced at two gene fragments (LSU and TEF1-α) and analysed for strain relationsh...
