Uniparental nuclear inheritance following bisexual mating in fungi

2020-12-03

Abstract excerpt

Some remarkable animal species require an opposite-sex partner for their sexual development but discard the partner’s genome before gamete formation, generating hemi-clonal progeny in a process called hybridogenesis. Here, we discovered a similar phenomenon, termed pseudosexual reproduction, in a basidiomycete human fungal pathogen, Cryptococcus neoformans , where exclusive uniparental inheritance of nuclear gene...
