Abstract excerpt
A total of 2035 Mycosphaerella graminicola strains collected from 16 geographic locations on four continents were assayed for the mating type locus. RFLP fingerprints were used to identify clones in each population. At the smallest spatial scale analyzed, both mating types were found among fungal strains sampled from different lesions of the same leaf as well as from different pycnidia in the same lesion. At...
