Abstract excerpt
Multiple repetitive sequences of authentic genes commonly exist in fungal genomes. AT-biased genotypes of Ophiocordyceps sinensis have been hypothesized as repetitive pseudogenes in the genome of Hirsutella sinensis (GC-biased Genotype #1 of O. sinensis) and are generated through repeat-induced point mutation (RIP), which is charactered by cytosine-to-thymine and guanine-to-adenine transitions, concurrent...
