Genomic and Population Analyses of the Mating Type Loci in <i>Coccidioides</i> Species Reveal Evidence for Sexual Reproduction and Gene Acquisition

19 May 2007

Abstract excerpt

Coccidioides species, the fungi responsible for the valley fever disease, are known to reproduce asexually through the production of arthroconidia that are the infectious propagules. The possible role of sexual reproduction in the survival and dispersal of these pathogens is unexplored. To determine the potential for mating of Coccidioides, we analyzed genome sequences and identified mating type loci...
