The mitochondrial genome of Mallocybe sp. is circular, AT skewed (70.2%), and 21,500 bp in length. It contains the conserved fungal gene package, including 16 protein-coding genes, 23 transfer RNA, and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. ## Linked entities - **Species:** Mallocybe sp. (taxon 2545851), Basidiomycota (taxon 5204), Inocybaceae (taxon 665596) ## Full-text entities - **Species:** Mallocybe sp. (species) [taxon 2545851] ## Figures 1 figure with captions in the complete paper: https://tomesphere.com/paper/PMC12243559/full.md --- Source: https://tomesphere.com/paper/PMC12243559
