(-) mating type-specific mutants of Phycomyces defective in sex pheromone biosynthesis.

Fungal genetics and biology : FG & B - 1 Dec 1996

Sutter R P, Grandin A B, Dye B D, Moore W R

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated the first mating type-specific mutants in mucoraceous fungi. Both mutants in Phycomyces blakesleeanus appear to be defective in the same gene. The gene, present in both mating types, is necessary only in cultures of the (-) mating type. The gene codes for an enzyme in sex pheromone biosynthesis. The pheromone precursor made by the mutants is detectable only in cross-feeding experiments. The...
