A Third Multiallelic Mating-type Locus in Physarum polycephalum
Microbiology, 1987 SUMMARY: Sexual development (crossing) in Physarum polycephalum occurs when two haploid amoebae fuse to form a diploid plasmodium. The imz locus influences the maximum pH at which crossing can occur. A new allele of imz has been identified, bringing the total number of alleles to three.

Role of α2 Protein in Donor Locus Selection during Mating Type Interconversion [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1997 The homeodomain protein alpha2p plays a role both in transcriptional repression in the process of cell type determination and in donor selection during mating interconversion. We have explored the mechanism of alpha2p-directed donor selection by examining the effects on donor preference of mutants deficient in alpha2p-mediated transcriptional ...

Population genetics of trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense: clonality and diversity within and between foci [PDF]
, 2013 African trypanosomes are unusual among pathogenic protozoa in that they can undergo their complete morphological life cycle in the tsetse fly vector with mating as a non-obligatory part of this development.

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2021 The study of the reproductive biology of lichen fungal symbionts has been traditionally challenging due to their complex lifestyles. Against the common belief of haploidy, a recent genomic study found a triploid-like signal in Letharia.

An Overview of the Function and Maintenance of Sexual Reproduction in Dikaryotic Fungi
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Sexual reproduction likely evolved as protection from environmental stresses, specifically, to repair DNA damage, often via homologous recombination. In higher eukaryotes, meiosis and the production of gametes with allelic combinations different from ...

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 The initiation of sexual development in the important edible and medicinal mushroom Flammulina velutipes is controlled by special genes at two different, independent, mating type (MAT) loci: HD and PR. We expanded our understanding of the F.

Linkage mapping identifies the sex determining region as a single locus in the Pennate diatom Seminavis robusta. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The pennate diatom Seminavis robusta, characterized by an archetypical diatom life cycle including a heterothallic mating system, is emerging as a model system for studying the molecular regulation of the diatom cell and life cycle.

mBio, 2019 The clonal population structure of Candida albicans suggests that (para)sexual recombination does not play an important role in the lifestyle of this opportunistic fungal pathogen, an assumption that is strengthened by the fact that most C.

Identification and functional analysis of pheromone and receptor genes in the B3 mating locus of Pleurotus eryngii. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Pleurotus eryngii has recently become a major cultivated mushroom; it uses tetrapolar heterothallism as a part of its reproductive process. Sexual development progresses only when the A and B mating types are compatible.
