Transcriptome Analysis and Expression Profiling of Molecular Responses to Cd Toxicity in Morchella spongiola

Morchella is a genus of fungi with the ability to concentrate Cd both in the fruit-body and mycelium. However, the molecular mechanisms conferring resistance to Cd stress in Morchella are unknown. Here, RNA-based transcriptomic sequencing was used to identify the genes and pathways involved in Cd to...
