Sex, drugs and recombination: the wild life of Aspergillus.

Molecular ecology - 1 Mar 2012

Fisher Matthew C, Henk Daniel A

Abstract excerpt

Throughout the eukaryotes, sexual reproduction is an almost universal phenomenon. However, within the Kingdom Fungi, this relationship is not so clear-cut. Fungi exhibit a spectrum of reproductive modes and life-cycles; amongst the better known species, sexual reproduction is often facultative, can be rare, and in over half of the known Ascomycota (the moulds) is unknown (Taylor et al. 1999). However, over the...
