Southern hybridization of the total DNA of Agrocybe aegerita with cloned mitochondrial (mt) probes revealed a sequence homology between two distant mitochondrial restriction fragments. From the mtDNA restriction map and the distribution of restriction sites on the cross-hybridizing mitochondrial fragments, two copies of a large inverted repeated sequence (IR) of 3 kbp were located on the mitochondrial genome. These IR sequences divided the 80 kbp mtDNA into two single-copy regions of 24 kbp (SSC) and 50 kbp (LSC). For the first time in higher fungi, this IR sequence has been shown to be involved in an intramolecular homologous recombinational event. Such a rearrangement led to an inversion of the orientation of the two unique-copy regions, without any change in mtDNA complexity. The location of the recombinational event was compared with previously reported plant and fungal mitochondrial rearrangements and the potential role of the IR sequence was discussed.
