Lactarius is one of the most prominent genera of mushroom-forming fungi in the world. In the present study, complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) from six Lactarius species were sequenced and assembled. The six mitogenomes were all composed of circular DNA molecules, with total lengths ranging from 38,445 bp to 60,843 bp. The GC contents, GC skews, and AT skews of the mitogenomes varied among the six species. Mitogenomic synteny analysis revealed the presence of gene rearrangements among the mitogenomes. Among the 15 core protein coding genes (PCGs) within the mitogenomes, nad4L exhibited the least genetic distance among species, indicating a high degree of conservation. In addition, the Ka/Ks values for all 15 core PCGs were <1, suggesting that they were subject to purifying selection. Comparative analyses indicated that the increase of intron numbers and sizes contributed to the expansion of mitogenomes in Lactarius. Phylogenetic analyses based on three combined gene datasets yielded identical and well-supported (BPP >= 0.83) topologies, dividing the six Lactarius species into two groups. This study provides the first report of mitogenomes from Lactarius and promotes further understanding of the genetics, evolution, and phylogenetic relationships of this important ectomycorrhizal fungal genus.
