Conclusions

Very limited amount of detectable duplications in Laccaria bicolor despite large genome size

Internal duplications should be traceable because it can be detected between basidiomycetes

Large amount of conserved duplications in the ancestor of the three basidiomycetes

This contrasts with reports from ascomycetes
