Mnsod3 participates in the response of mycelia to heat stress and the formation of primordia in Pleurotus ostreatus by regulating the cell wall
In this study, we investigated the function of Mnsod3 in the growth and development of P. ostreatus. It is well known that heat stress is an important abiotic stress during mycelial growth. In this study, the results indicated that the RNAi-Mnsod3 strains can upregulate the expression of hydrophobic protein family genes and affect the thickness of cell walls, thereby enhancing mycelial tolerance to heat stress.
