Cryptococcus neoformans overcomes stress of azole drugs by formation of disomy in specific multiple chromosomes. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2010 Cryptococcus neoformans is a haploid environmental organism and the major cause of fungal meningoencephalitis in AIDS patients. Fluconazole (FLC), a triazole, is widely used for the maintenance therapy of cryptococcosis.

Development and Molecular Cytogenetic Identification of a Novel Wheat-Leymus mollis Lm#7Ns (7D) Disomic Substitution Line with Stripe Rust Resistance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Leymus mollis (2n = 4x = 28, NsNsXmXm) possesses novel and important genes for resistance against multi-fungal diseases. The development of new wheat-L. mollis introgression lines is of great significance for wheat disease resistance breeding. M11003-3-1-

Multiple convergent supergene evolution events in mating-type chromosomes
Nature Communications, 2018 Supergenes result from beneficial linkage and recombination suppression between two or more genes. Giraud and colleagues use whole genome sequencing data to show convergent evolution of supergenes on mating-type chromosomes in multiple closely-related ...

Telomeric and Sub-Telomeric Structure and Implications in Fungal Opportunistic Pathogens
Microorganisms, 2021 Telomeres are long non-coding regions found at the ends of eukaryotic linear chromosomes. Although they have traditionally been associated with the protection of linear DNA ends to avoid gene losses during each round of DNA replication, recent studies ...

Motor-driven motility of fungal nuclear pores organizes chromosomes and fosters nucleocytoplasmic transport [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2012 Exchange between the nucleus and the cytoplasm is controlled by nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). In animals, NPCs are anchored by the nuclear lamina, which ensures their even distribution and proper organization of chromosomes. Fungi do not possess a lamina and how they arrange their chromosomes and NPCs is unknown.

Bridgin connects the outer kinetochore to centromeric chromatin
Nature Communications, 2021 The kinetochore is a multi-complex structure that helps attach chromosomes to spindle microtubules, ensuring accurate chromosome segregation during cell division. Kinetochores are thought to be evolutionarily conserved, but which components are conserved

Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2021 Abstract Sex chromosomes often carry large nonrecombining regions that can extend progressively over time, generating evolutionary strata of sequence divergence. However, some sex chromosomes display an incomplete suppression of recombination.
