Abstrakt: True morels (Morchella) are globally renowned medicinal and edible mushrooms. White mold disease caused by fungi is the main disease of Morchella, which has the characteristics of wide incidence and strong destructiveness. The disparities observed in the isolation rates of different pathogens indicate their varying degrees of host adaptability and competitive survival abilities. In order to elucidate its potential mechanism, this study, the pathogen of white mold disease from Dafang county, Guizhou Province was isolated and purified, identified as Pseudodiploöspora longispora by morphological, molecular biological and pathogenicity tests. Furthermore, high-quality genome of P. longisporus (40.846 Mb) was assembled N50 of 3.09 Mb, predicts 7381 protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analysis of single-copy homologous genes showed that P. longispora and Zelopaecilomyces penicillatus have the closest evolutionary relationship, diverging into two branches approximately 50 (44.3–61.4) MYA. Additionally, compared with the other two pathogens causing Morchella disease, Z. penicillatus and Cladobotryum protrusum, it was found that they had similar proportions of carbohydrate enzyme types and encoded abundant cell wall degrading enzymes, such as chitinase and glucanase, indicating their important role in disease development. Moreover, the secondary metabolite gene clusters of P. longispora and Z. penicillatus show a high degree of similarity to leucinostatin A and leucinostatin B (peptaibols). Furthermore, a gene cluster with synthetic toxic substance Ochratoxin A was also identified in P. longispora and C. protrusum, indicating that they may pose a potential threat to food safety. This study provides valuable insights into the genome of P. longispora, contributing to pathogenicity research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
