A family of optional group-I introns was found near the 3′ end of the nuclear small subunit
rRNA genes in 61 out of 70 isolates of the deuteromycete mycorrhizal fungus Cenococcum …

The ascomycetous fungus Cryptendoxyla hypophloia contains an insertion of 433 base
pairs in the genes encoding nuclear small subunit ribosomal RNA. Secondary structure …

Ericoid mycorrhizal fungi form symbioses with the roots of members of the Ericales. Although
only two genera have been identified in culture, the taxonomic diversity of ericoid symbionts …

The nucleotide sequence of the gene coding for small ribosomal subunit RNA in the
basidiomycete Ustilago maydis was determined. It revealed the presence of a group I intron …

A large number of group I introns were discovered in coding regions of small and large
subunits of nuclear ribosomal RNA genes (SSU rDNA and LSU rDNA) in ascomycetous …

A 1 380-bp intervening sequence within the mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal RNA (mt
SSU rRNA) gene of the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum has been sequenced and identified …

Three species of the lichenized fungus Roccella (Arthoniales, Euascomycetes), R.
canariensis, R. tuberculata and R. montagnei, were found to possess insertions in the first …

Two putative group I introns in the nuclear ribosomal RNA genes of Hymenoscyphus ericae
are described. One is in the small subunit gene about 30 nucleotides upstream of the 3 …

We have characterized structural features and the distribution pattern of nuclear group I
introns found in ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of closely related plant pathogenic fungi of the family …

Introns within messenger RNA genes have characteristic border sequences and a
conserved region near the 3′ end of the intron. All are involved in splicing to produce the …
