Molecular Identification of Ganoderma Species from Lagos State, Nigeria

Öz

Ganoderma, a polypore fungus, is widely recognized for its therapeutic properties and use in various health products. There are currently no findings on the molecular diversity of Ganoderma species from Lagos, Nigeria. This preliminary study aimed to ascertain the diversity among thirty-two wild Ganoderma species collected from various locations in Lagos State in Nigeria. Thirty two isolates of Ganoderma collected from wood logs were identified through genetic analysis of Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS1 and ITS4) region. Quality trimming and alignment of various sequences was done using bioedit software and ClustalW algorithm, respectively. The ancestry tree was estimated using the Neighbor Joining method with MEGA 12 software. The results revealed that the samples collected are separated into three distinct groups as shown by the different clades supported by moderate, strong and very strong bootstrap values, namely Ganoderma mbrekobenum (51-92%) , G. enigmaticum (81-99%), and G. amazonense (91-99%) respectively. Therefore, majority of the isolates have the closest ties to isolates from Ghana and this is the first description of G. amazonense from Nigeria. However, none of the isolates was Ganoderma lucidum or G. applanatum which is the species mostly studied in Nigeria. The sequences were submitted to the GenBank database for reference purposes and were assigned accession numbers as seen on phylogenetic tree.
