Application of Bioinformatics in Edible Fungi Study
Edible fungi have increasingly become more and more people to attract much attention and endearment due to they contain abundant in multiple amino acids and trace elements,and possesses higher nutritional value as well as medicinal value.China as the most important edible fungi producer,the scale of edible fungi production has increas-ingly expanded,the output is also advanced with every passing year.In order to develop the industry of edible fungi better,it is urgently to integrate new technology into traditional edible fungi industrial chain such as the breeding of fine varieties,and the cultivation production.Bioinformatics as a branch of technological categories studying the life structure of living things,the biological significance embraced through applied mathematics,computer sciences and other instrumentalities,has greatly improved the development of life science study,it also provides technology assur-ance for more deepening study and application of edible fungi.In this paper the concrete application of bioinformatics in edible fungi field was expatiated through the breeding of edible fungi and the investigation of germplasm resources,the control of diseases and pests,genomics,security of edible fungi,and other aspects.The development of bioinfor-matics in edible fungi as well as in agricultural field was prospected,so as to provide reference for the improvement of edible fungi study and production development.
