The calmodulin gene in Neurospora crassa is required for normal vegetative growth, ultraviolet survival, and sexual development.

Archives of microbiology - 1 May 2017

Laxmi Vijya, Tamuli Ranjan

Abstract excerpt

We isolated a Neurospora crassa mutant of the calmodulin (cmd) gene using repeat-induced point mutation and studied its phenotypes. The cmd RIP mutant showed a defect in growth, reduced aerial hyphae, decreased carotenoid accumulation, a severe reduction in viability upon ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, and a fertility defect. Moreover, meiotic silencing of the cmd gene resulted in a barren phenotype. In addition,...
