Abstract excerpt
A study using allozymes and PCR fingerprinting was conducted to estimate the genetic diversity of Italian populations of two economically important cultivated fungal taxa, Pleurotus eryngii and P. ferulae. Very little is known about the genetic diversity distribution pattern of these taxa. Heterozygote deficiency was observed at few loci; in fact the inbreeding coefficients were not high, which demonstrates that...
