Abstract excerpt
In the laboratory, the ascomycete fungus Cryphonectria parasitica is rarely self-fertile, and has a self-incompatibility system that resolves into two intersterility groups, controlled by a single locus. In natural populations, however, self-fertilization occurs frequently. In this report, we show that the C. parasitica self-incompatibility locus (MAT) comprises two idiomorphs (alleles that are highly divergent...
