Abstract excerpt
Light-dependent conidiation in the filamentous ascomycete, Aspergillus nidulans, is contingent on the allelic state of the velvet (veA) gene. Light dependence is abolished by a mutation in this gene (veA1), which allows conidiation to occur in the absence of light. We have isolated and characterized six extragenic suppressors of veA1 that restore the light-dependent conidiation phenotype. Alleles of four genes,...
