The science and legacies of Ronald Phillips: A brief perspective
Abstract Ronald Phillips, a maize geneticist, developed his career exploiting maize and the genetics of other species to help bring plant science into the era of molecular genetics. He was driven by belief in the value of service for the common good and in the value and importance of science for its own sake and for agriculture and food security, in ...

Cyclosporin A-binding protein (cyclophilin) of Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Cyclophilin (cyclosporin A-binding protein) has a dual localization in the mitochondria and in the cytosol of Neurospora crassa. The two forms are encoded by a single gene which is transcribed into mRNAs having different lengths and 5' termini ...

Using image analysis to track the development of fungal networks in the presence of predators, we found that even in modular organisms, plasticity is more nuanced and limited than previously assumed. Our results challenge the long‐held notion that a modular body plan necessarily confers extreme plasticity.

Global analysis of serine/threonine and tyrosine protein phosphatase catalytic subunit genes in Neurospora crassa reveals interplay between phosphatases and the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. [PDF]
Protein phosphatases are integral components of the cellular signaling machinery in eukaryotes, regulating diverse aspects of growth and development. The genome of the filamentous fungus and model organism Neurospora crassa encodes catalytic subunits for

The L-amino acid oxidase of Neurospora [PDF]
In 1944 one of us described a D-amino acid oxidase in extracts of Neurospora crassa (1). Except for slight activity against L-glutamate, no oxidation of L-amino acids was observed.

Evidence for the impact of Reactive oxygen species on the control of branching in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
In preliminary screens, several functions, most notably, genes involved in the control of reactive oxygen species (ROS), were identified as playing a role in the process of growth rate compensation of branch density.
