Construction of chimeric alleles with altered specificity at the b incompatibility locus of Ustilago maydis.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 15 Jan 1993

Yee A R, Kronstad J W

Abstract excerpt

Multiallelic incompatibility systems found in many fungi and plants function to limit inbreeding by mediating self versus nonself recognition. The plant pathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis has a locus called b that governs incompatibility. Two multiallelic genes, bE and bW, are present at the b locus. Fusion of haploid strains carrying different alleles at bE and bW establishes an infectious dikaryon capable of...
