Abstract excerpt
The availability of a large number of gene-disrupted mutants (either from natural mutants' collections or from knockout projects) is a great advantage for functional analysis studies. However, disfunction of many fungal genes, involved in key developmental processes, leads to dramatic and pleotropic changes in cell morphology, conferring a major difficulty in studying null mutants. Therefore, obtaining variable...
