Convergent evolution of linked mating-type loci in basidiomycete fungi

2019-05-05

Abstract excerpt

Sexual development is a key evolutionary innovation of eukaryotes. In many species, mating involves interaction between compatible mating partners that can undergo cell and nuclear fusion and subsequent steps of development including meiosis. Mating compatibility in fungi is governed by mating type determinants, which are localized at mating type ( MAT ) loci. In basidiomycetes, the ancestral state is hypothesize...
