Hericium erinaceus strain:Houza 19 Transcriptome or Gene expression

Hericium erinaceus, one of the rare wood-rotting mushrooms with many active compounds, is effective on the prevention and treatment of many diseases of the organism. Each component plays the individual roles in almost all of the physiological systems of organism, including digestive, circulatory and immune system and so on. However, the growth and development are greatly influcenced by the enviormental factors, such as the concentration of carbon dioxide. Low CO2 level can promote the development of the mycelium and fruit body. Unfortunately, high concentration of CO2 can lead to the formation of the coral deformity fruit body, which dramatically reduces the quality of the fruit body. Moreover, the bioactive constituents in Hericium erinaceus can correspondingly vary with the variation of the phenotype. So it is very important to discover the molecular mechanism on the regulation of the CO2.
