Pleurotus ostreatus Genome Sequence
An international group of scientists will be sequencing the genome of the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus, which is not only an important food source, but also a model for studying the carbon dioxide cycle, and has great potential for use in bioremediation. The sequencing of this 70 million-base pair genome is approximated to take about 2 years.

This collaborative project will be Carrie out by the following institutions:
  • from Spain: Public University of Navarre, Universities of Seville, Salamanca and Leon, the CSIC Centre

  • from the United States: University of Wisconsin, Southeast Missouri State University, Universities of Michigan, Texas, Duke and Indiana

  • from Germany: Universities of Georg-August in Götting, Munster and Hannover

  • from Canada: University of Toronto

  • from Autria: University of Vienna

  • from Israel: Hebrew University in Jerusalem

  • from Italy: Federico II of Naples University and

  • from Japan: Kyushu University
