Xanthoporus peckianus is a member of the order
Polyporales, and was sequenced as part of the 1000
Fungal Genomes Project. In the 1KFG project, we aim to sequence
additional sampling of genomic diversity within keystone lineages
of plant-interacting fungi and saprophytic fungi that are of
special ecological importance for understanding terrestrial
ecosystems. In addition, comparative genome analysis with
saprotrophic, mycorrhizal and pathogenic fungi will provide new
insights into the specific and conserved adaptations associated
with each fungal lifestyle.
Researchers who wish to publish analyses using data from
unpublished CSP genomes are respectfully required to contact the PI
and JGI to avoid potential conflicts on data use and coordinate
other publications with the CSP master paper(s).
