Abstract

Abstract By November 2020, sixteen whole-genome sequencing projects for Ganoderma species have been registered in the international databases. Three of them have been assembled to high quality. This chapter provides an overview of these genome sequencing projects. To support the utilization of genomic information of Ganoderma lucidum, we constructed the G. lucidum Database (GaLuDB). This database’s contents include the genome assembly, predicted gene models, and their corresponding gene function annotations. Besides, GaLuDB also contains transcriptomic data for G. lucidum obtained from three different developmental stages or those under various conditions. To facilitate the browsing and querying of these data, GaLuDB provides three groups of utilities: GBrowse, Tools, and Wiki pages. GBrowse allows users to navigate the genome to view the gene structure, their annotation, and the expression levels. The tools can be divided into four sub-categories: (1) database searching tools based on sequence similarity; (2) retrieval of annotations and sequences giving a list of gene IDs; (3) curation of gene models; and (4) identification of gene clusters enriched with genes belonging to particular functional groups. Lastly, a wiki site has been set up for the G. lucidum research community members to share and exchange information. GaLuDB can be accessed publicly at http://www.1kmpg.cn/galu.
