The genus Elsinoe includes many aggressive plant pathogens that infect various
economically important agricultural, horticultural and forestry plants. Significant diseases …

Sexual reproduction in filamentous ascomycetes is controlled by the mating type (MAT)
locus, including two idiomorphs MAT1-1 and MAT1-2. Understanding the MAT locus can …

Mating is central to many fungal life cycles and is controlled by genes at the mating-type
(MAT) locus. These genes determine whether the fungus will be self-sterile (heterothallic) or …

Unidirectional mating-type switching is a form of homothallic reproduction known only in a
small number of filamentous ascomycetes. Their ascospores can give rise to either self …

In ascomycetes, mating compatibility is regulated by the mating-type locus, MAT1. The
objectives of this study were to identify and sequence genes at the MAT1 locus in the grape …

Coccidioides species, the fungi responsible for the valley fever disease, are known to
reproduce asexually through the production of arthroconidia that are the infectious …

Stagonosporopsis chrysanthemi, S. inoxydabilis, and S. tanaceti are closely related
Ascomycetes associated with ray blight of the Asteraceae. To date, only S. tanaceti has been …

Poplar plantations provide important industrial feedstock in China. Red spot symptoms were
observed on leaves of Populus tomentosa and P. deltoides in southeastern China. Based on …

A survey of genomes reported here for 10 isolates of Monosporascus species and an
additional 25 genomes from other members of the Xylariales (representing 15 genera) …

Eupenicillium species are the teleomorphic (sexual) forms of anamorphic (asexual)
members of the genus Penicillium, which contains many species of industrial importance …
