Comparative analysis of genome-wide transcriptional responses to continuous heat stress in Pleurotus tuoliensis

The whole-genome gene expression profiling was performed by RNA-Seq after 96 h HS treatment of P. tuoliensis mycelia. Divergent mycelial growth rates were observed under the HS with different intensities, which facilitated comparative analyses combining both physiological and transcriptomic data. The goal aimed to acquire a deeper insight into the genome-wide gene expression patterns during the response to HS in mushrooms.
