Evolution of the mating types and mating strategies in prominent genera in the Botryosphaeriaceae [PDF]

Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2018
Little is known regarding mating strategies in the Botryosphaeriaceae. To understand sexual reproduction in this fungal family, the mating type genes of Botryosphaeria dothidea and Macrophomina phaseolina, as well as several species of Diplodia ...

Cell-cell signalling in sexual chemotaxis: a basis for gametic differentiation, mating types and sexes. [PDF]

J R Soc Interface, 2015
While sex requires two parents, there is no obvious need for them to be differentiated into distinct mating types or sexes. Yet this is the predominate state of nature.

Dynamics of mitochondrial inheritance in the evolution of binary mating types and two sexes. [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci, 2013
The uniparental inheritance (UPI) of mitochondria is thought to explain the evolution of two mating types or even true sexes with anisogametes. However, the exact role of UPI is not clearly understood.

Evolutionary responses to increased opportunity for sexual selection in yeast [PDF]

BMC Ecology and Evolution
Sexual selection contributes to biodiversity and the costs and benefits of sexual reproduction. In organisms where sex is infrequent, these impacts of sexual selection are likely to be limited.

Genes and pheromones of Euplotes mating types.

, 2013
The nearly one hundred species of Euplotes evolved high-multiple mating systems. Based on analyses of Mendelian genetics, these systems have for long been assumed to be uniformly determined by series of multiple alleles inherited at a single micronuclear

Cryphonectria parasitica Detections in England, Jersey, and Guernsey during 2020–2023 Reveal Newly Affected Areas and Infections by the CHV1 Mycovirus

Journal of Fungi, 2023
In England, Cryphonectria parasitica was detected for the first time in 2011 in a nursery and in 2016 in the wider environment. Surveys between 2017 and 2020 identified the disease at different sites in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Cornwall, Derbyshire ...

Identification of Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum Isolates via Conventional and Molecular Methods

European Journal of Biology, 2022
Objective: Fusarium spp. cause Fusarium head blight (FHB) and crown rot (CR) diseases. They also have harmful effects on animal and human health through their mycotoxins. Within the scope of this study, F. graminearum and F.

Sexual Compatibility Types in F₁ Progenies of Sclerospora graminicola, the Causal Agent of Pearl Millet Downy Mildew

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Sclerospora graminicola is primarily heterothallic in nature with two distinct mating types (G1 and G2); however, homothallism does exist in the pathogen populations.

The Destructive Tree Pathogen Phytophthora ramorum Originates from the Laurosilva Forests of East Asia

Journal of Fungi, 2021
As global plant trade expands, tree disease epidemics caused by pathogen introductions are increasing. Since ca 2000, the introduced oomycete Phytophthora ramorum has caused devastating epidemics in Europe and North America, spreading as four ancient ...
