Sclerospora graminicola is primarily heterothallic in nature with two distinct mating types (G1 and G2); however, homothallism does exist in the pathogen populations.

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

Mating Types in Screwworm Populations? [PDF]
Response is given to questions raised by L.E. LaChance, et al., regarding the types of screwworm that occur in Mexico and anatomical differences in male genitalia among types. Errors in chromosome length and arm ratios are discussed. Results of testing the V-81 strain (sterile males) indicate that mating barriers exist even at high release rates ...

Effects of mating-type ratio imbalance on the degeneration of Cordyceps militaris subculture and preventative measures [PDF]
The rapid degeneration of Cordyceps militaris strains during subculture represents a bottleneck problem that affects production stability. This study explored the mechanism underlying this degeneration in three production and three wild-type strains of ...

Stimulation Study of Gene Pyramiding in Animals by Marker-Assisted Selection
This gene pyramiding strategy is based on the idea of efficiently pyramiding genes of interest by crosses and selection to obtain a population with favorable alleles from different breeds or lines, which is called an ideal population.
