Genetic basis of self-incompatibility in the lichen-forming fungus Lobaria pulmonaria and skewed frequency distribution of mating-type idiomorphs: implications for conservation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Fungal populations that reproduce sexually are likely to be genetically more diverse and have a higher adaptive potential than asexually reproducing populations.

Evolution of the mating type gene pair and multiple sexes in Tetrahymena

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: The multiple mating type system of the Ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila is a self/non-self recognition system, whose specificity resides in a head-to-head, functionally distinct pair of genes, MTA and MTB. We have now sequenced and analyzed these

Gamete dimorphism of the isogamous green alga (Chlamydomonas reinhardtii), is regulated by the mating type-determining gene, MID

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
The mating type determining gene, MID, in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii algae governs formation of the α and β mating structures, highlighting a potential genetic basis for mating type- or sex-specific asymmetric positioning of the chlorophyte mating ...

Correlation of A Mating Type with Mycelial Growth Rate in Basidiospore-derived Monokaryons of Lentinula edodes

open access: yes한국균학회지, 2021
Lentinula edodes is a tetrapolar basidiomycete and its mating type is determined by two unlinked genetic loci, A and B. Theoretically, one dikaryotic strain could produce basidiospores with four different mating types in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. Previous studies

Evolutionary dynamics of mating-type loci of Mycosphaerella spp. occurring on banana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The devastating Sigatoka disease complex of banana is primarily caused by three closely related heterothallic fungi belonging to the genus Mycosphaerella: M. fijiensis, M. musicola, and M. eumusae.

Temporal and Spatial Variation in the Population Structure of Spanish Fusarium circinatum Infecting Pine Stands

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
Fusarium circinatum is an introduced fungal pathogen extended to the northern regions of Spain that causes Pine Pitch Canker (PPC) disease. In this work, we analyzed the pathogen’s genetic diversity to study changes over time and space since the first ...

Characterization of the Aspergillus flavus Population from Highly Aflatoxin-Contaminated Corn in the United States

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Aflatoxin contamination of corn is a major threat to the safe food and feed. The United States Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS) monitors commercial grain shipments for the presence of aflatoxin. A total of 146 Aspergillus flavus were isolated from

Comparative genomics of the mating-type loci of the mushroom Flammulina velutipes reveals widespread synteny and recent inversions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Mating-type loci of mushroom fungi contain master regulatory genes that control recognition between compatible nuclei, maintenance of compatible nuclei as heterokaryons, and fruiting body development.

Exploring Anastomosis of Hyphae and Mating-Type Compatibility of Pochonia chlamydosporia Isolates of the Meloidogyne, Heterodera and Globodera Biotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The endophytic and nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia is an efficient biological control agent of plant-parasitic nematodes. Isolates of the fungus can be allocated to a biotype group according to the nematode host, but it is unknown if genetic

Indirect Evidence Based on Mating-Type Ratios for the Role of Sexual Reproduction in European and Chinese Populations of Plenodomus biglobosus (Blackleg of Oilseed Rape)

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Blackleg (Phoma) disease, caused by the ascomycete fungi Plenodomus biglobosus and P. lingam, threatens oilseed rape (OSR; Brassica napus) crops internationally. In many parts of the world, both species co-occur, but in China only P.
