Abstract excerpt
Somatic incompatibility (SI) is a system by which filamentous fungi can distinguish self from non-self by delimiting the own mycelia from that of other individuals of the same species. In this study, we show that SI in the basidiomycete Heterobasidion annosum sensu lato is controlled by four loci by observing the frequency of somatically compatible pairings in two experiments where isolates were paired in all...
