Abstract excerpt
The white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus is an agaricomycete that is frequently used in molecular genetics studies as many useful tools are applicable to the fungus. In particular, efficient gene targeting using homologous recombination and CRISPR/Cas9 enables the introduction of a mutation in the gene of interest for functional analysis. Multiple genes encoding various lignocellulose-degrading enzymes are...
