Abstract excerpt
Heterokaryon incompatibility (HI) in filamentous fungi is a form of nonself recognition that operates during the vegetative phase of the life cycle. One HI gene complex in Neurospora crassa, the het-6 locus, comprises two incompatibility genes, het-6 and un-24, each having two allelic variants, Oak Ridge (OR) and Panama (PA). The un-24 gene also encodes the large subunit of ribonucleotide reductase while het-6...
