MAT gene idiomorphs suggest a heterothallic sexual cycle in the citrus pathogen Phyllosticta citricarpa

2017-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Sexual reproduction in fungi is controlled by mating type genes, which are located at the MAT locus. In this study, we investigated the structure of this locus in the phytopathogenic fungus Phyllosticta citricarpa, the causal agent of citrus black spot disease. Despite intensive study, its sexual state has never been observed in single-spore culture. Through analysis of the genome sequences of two individual P. ci...
