Fungal Sex: The Basidiomycota.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Jun 2017

Coelho Marco A, Bakkeren Guus, Sun Sheng, Hood Michael E, Giraud Tatiana

Abstract excerpt

Fungi of the Basidiomycota, representing major pathogen lineages and mushroom-forming species, exhibit diverse means to achieve sexual reproduction, with particularly varied mechanisms to determine compatibilities of haploid mating partners. For species that require mating between distinct genotypes, discrimination is usually based on both the reciprocal exchange of diffusible mating pheromones, rather than...
