Filamentous fungi are capable of hyphal fusion, but heterokaryon formation between different isolates is controlled by specific loci termed het loci. Heterokaryotic cells formed between strains of different het genotype are rapidly destroyed or strongly inhibited in their growth. In Neurospora crassa, at least 11 loci, including the mating type locus, affect the capacity to form a heterokaryon between different...
