Deletion of the mating-type sequences in Podospora anserina abolishes mating without affecting vegetative functions and sexual differentiation.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 Nov 1993

Abstract excerpt

The mating-type locus of Podospora anserina controls fusion of sexual cells as well as subsequent stages of development of the fruiting bodies. The two alleles at the locus are defined by specific DNA regions comprising 3.8 kb for mat+ and 4.7 kb for mat-, which have identical flanking sequences. Here we present the characterization of several mutants that have lost mat(+)-specific sequences. One mutant was...
