Publication Open Access Mapping the Pleurotus ostreatus genome(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Castellón Gadea, Jordi; Pisabarro de Lucas, Gerardo; Ramírez Nasto, Lucía; Producción Agraria; Nekazaritza EkoizpenaPleurotus ostreatus is a commercially important edible mushroom commonly known as oyster mushroom which has also important biotechnical applications. Industrial production of P.ostreatus is based on a solid fermentation process in which a limited number of selected strains are used. Optimization of industrial mushroom production depends on improving the culture process and breeding new strains with higher yields and productivities. In a previous study a linkage map of P. ostreatus strain N001 was constructed, which provided a basis for performing an efficient QTL (Quantitative trait loci) analysis based in a population of 80 sibling monokaryons. The map is based on the segregation of RAPD markers, RFLP markers, phenotypic characters and cloned genes. Nevertheless the linkage map is just a first step towards the selection of the appropiate parentals for new breeds. In order to organize and improve the access to the data and information accumulated in the previous works mentioned above, a Microsoft® Excel Linkage Map Matrix (MELMM) was designed and created. On this linkage map matrix we could have an easy and functional view of the P. ostreatus linkage map data, such as, recombination frequencies, genotypes information and degree of similarity between monokaryons that will help us in the design of breeding crosses aimed at improving QTLs of agronomic interest of new commercial strains.Publication Open Access Computational prediction of protein-coding gene and annotation of DNA sequences with agronomic interest in Pleurotus ostreatus (Oyster Mushroom)(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Palma Dovis, Leopoldo; Peñas Parrila, María Manuela; Ramírez Nasto, Lucía; Pisabarro de Lucas, Gerardo; Producción Agraria; Nekazaritza EkoizpenaPleurotus ostreatus, commonly known as oyster mushroom, is a commercially important edible fungus with interesting biotechnological properties. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analyses are rare in fungi and little is known about their number, position, and genetic structure. Previous studies of our group have allowed the construction of a genetic linkage map of P. ostreatus var. florida, which has provided the basis for performing an efficient QTL analysis. In fact, there is a region of the chromosome VII of P. ostreatus where the most QTLs related to the production and precocity characters have been mapped. These quantitative traits are presumably under the control of a polygenic genetic system and could be associated with some chromosomal regions. The hypothesis of this work is that there is a region in the chromosome VII of protoclon PC15 (monokaryotic parental of the N001 dikaryotic strain) where exist genes which are responsible for the QTLs mentioned above. In order to test this hypothesis, we are developing a molecular QTL analysis through the sequencing of a region with an approximated size of 320 Kbp in chromosome VII (protoclon PC15). For this purpose, a BAC genomic library was constructed and two BAC clones spanning the region of interest are being sequenced. To carry out an efficient computational prediction of protein-coding genes and its annotation on the partial sequences obtained up to date, we have used different Internet resources such as BLASTx, BLASTp, BLASTn, and FGENESH trained on some basidiomycetes genomic data like Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Cryptococcus neoformans (SoftBerry). To our knowledge, this is the firs molecular QTL analysis performed on this edible mushroom.
