The progress made in the molecular characterization of the mating types in several
filamentous ascomycetes has allowed us to better understand their role in sexual …

Each heterothallic filamentous ascomycete, for which there are complete molecular data,
has a single mating type (MAT) locus represented by two idiomorphs. One idiomorph …

This book will serve as the definitive reference work on the basic physiology, biochemistry,
development, genetics, and molecular biology of Neurospora, together with a description of …

▪ Abstract Mating type genes regulate sexual compatibility and sexual reproduction in fungi.
This review focuses on recent molecular analyses of well-characterized mating systems from …

This book focuses on the taxonomy and pathology of Cylindrocladium and its allies. Aspects
relating to baiting and isolation, pathogenicity, diseases and symptoms, and disease control …

Most of the 3,000 named species in the genus Cercospora have no known sexual stage,
although a Mycosphaerella teleomorph has been identified for a few. Mycosphaerella is an …

▪ Abstract In ascomycetes, the single mating type locus (MAT) controls sexual development.
This locus is structurally unusual because the two alternate forms (“alleles”) are completely …

Mating type (MAT) genes were cloned from three members of the Gibberella/Fusarium
complex that differ in reproductive mode: heterothallic G. fujikuroi, homothallic G. zeae, and …

In most fungal ascomycetes, mating is controlled by a single locus (MAT). Fungi requiring a
partner to mate are heterothallic (self-sterile); those not requiring a partner are homothallic …

Sexual reproduction in ascomycete fungi is governed by the mating-type (MAT) locus. The
MAT loci of Diaporthe and its Phomopsis anamorphs differ in only one gene: MAT1-1-1 in …
