Evolutionary insights into Cordyceps militaris from mitogenome dynamics and genome-wide variation

Abstract Cordyceps militaris is a prized entomopathogenic fungus with significant medicinal and commercial value, yet its intraspecific genetic diversity has not been thoroughly examined. Mitogenomes from 118 geographically diverse samples were analyzed to trace the evolutionary trajectory of C. militaris and elucidate...
