Outline of Final Research Achievements

The coloration of maitake fruiting bodies is caused by melanin, which is produced by tyrosinase 2. A comparison of the tyrosinase 2 gene sequence between the mutant and wild type revealed a single nucleotide deletion in the coding region of the mutant gene. A single nucleotide deletion was found in the coding region of the mutant gene, and frameshift mutation was occurred. In addition, we succeeded in developing a technique for selecting albino mutant strains among basidiospore isolates by PCR, efficiently. The color of the fruiting bodies of the mutant × mutant and wild type × mutant dikaryon selected by using this technology were white and beige, respectively. The results of this study will provide a new strategy for breeding white varieties of maitake and facilitate the breeding technique of useful white varieties.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

マイタケは,日本で人気の食用きのこであり,人工栽培も可能で,非常によく食されている.しかしながら,汁物の多い和食では,マイタケ特有の褐色色素が,煮汁に出てくることで料理の色合いが悪くなるため,鍋などの汁物には使いにくい食材の一つであることから,褐色色素を生産しない有用な白色品種の開発が熱望されている.しかし,現有する白色品種は,収量が低く,生産しても採算が取れないため,普及していない.本研究の成果で,マイタケの白色化の原因遺伝子が分かったこと,そして,その変異型遺伝子の検出が容易になったことで,今後,加速度的に収量の高い,白色マイタケ品種を育種することができるようになった.
