Abstract excerpt
Branch density (the spatial distribution of branch initiation points along a growing hypha) in wild-type Neurospora has been shown to remain constant at different growth rates due to a hypothesized system which compensates for hyphal growth rate. Here we report the results of a survey of the Neurospora knockout library for mutants affecting this proposed growth rate compensation system. The mutants identified...
