Porodaedalea chrysoloma is a member of Hymenochaetaceae family from the order Hymenochaetales, and was sequenced as part of the 1000 Fungal Genomes Project. The 1000 Fungal Genomes Project aims fill in gaps in the Fungal Tree of Life by sequencing at least two reference genomes from the more than 500 recognized families of Fungi. The Hymenochaetales is a large and diverse order that contains many important forest pathogens and decay species, but few in this group have been sequenced to date. This project additionally aims to inform research on plant-microbe interactions, microbial emission and capture of greenhouse gasses, and environmental metagenomic sequencing.
