Resumo Inglês:

The aim of this work was to analyze the Brazilian and Chinese strains of Ganoderma lucidum with molecular RAPD
markers. A similarity matrix was elaborated and the RAPD profiles of G. lucidum strains were also compared to
two other Ganoderma spp: G. applanatum and G. lipsiense in order to produce genetic similarity among the species.
Based on the primers used, it was possible to determine that the Brazilian strains and Chinese strain CC-22 are
alike. The method and the primers selection showed to be appropriate for the genetic identification of G. lucidum
strains, enabling them to be improved and used in research, as well as in the world market.
