Sexual mutants of a heterothallic Mucor species, Mucor pusillus

Experimental Mycology, 1978
The Mucorales consist of both homothallic and heterothallic species. Both types can be found in the same species but this is not a common phenomenon. A few homothallic strains are found in the predominantly heterothallic species, Mucor pusillus . It was interesting to see how readily homothallic mutants could be induced in this species.

Regulation of ornithine decarboxylase activity in Mucor bacilliformis and Mucor rouxii

Experimental Mycology, 1987
Abstract Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) from Mucor bacilliformis and Mucor rouxii was studied. Enzymatic activity was maximal at pH 7.2–7.4 and at 30°C. The K m was 0.17 m M for the M. bacilliformis enzyme. Putrescine was a competitive inhibitor of ODC with a K i of 2–3 m M .

Electrophoretic karyotype of Mucor circinelloides

Current Genetics, 1994
Contour-clamped homogeneous electric field (CHEF) gel electrophoresis was used to separate chromosomal size DNA molecules of two Mucor circinelloides strains. Electrophoretic karyotypes revealed the presence of eight distinct bands for the M. circinelloides f. lusitanicus strain, and four, presumably multiple, bands for the M. circinelloides f.

Biochemistry of Dimorphism in the Fungus Mucor

1979
Publisher Summary The chapter summarizes the recent biochemical studies on various aspects of development in Mucor. The asexual life cycle of Mucor can be divided into three stages: sporangiospore germination, vegetative growth, and sporangiospore formation.

Knots in Leucothrix mucor

Science, 1964
The filaments of Leucothrix mucor are able to form true knots under certain cultural conditions. Such structures have apparently not been previously seen in filamentous organisms. As the culture ages, the knots become tighter and eventually the cells in the knot region fuse and form a large bulb. The filament breaks

Heterothallic Antibiosis in Mucor Racemosus

Mycologia, 1948
During a preliminary testing of stock laboratory cultures of molds for possible antibiotic properties, a culture of a phycomycete, Mucor racemosus Fres., indicated antibacterial effects. It was not known whether this culture represented a plus or a minus strain of the heterothallic fungus.
