Causes and consequences of variability in peptide mating pheromones of ascomycete fungi

Simon H. Martin, +3 more
- 01 Jul 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that frequent duplication and loss causes the tandem repeats to experience "birth-and-death" evolution, which could in fact facilitate interspecific divergence of pheromone peptide sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of Fungus-Mite Mutualism in a Unique Niche

Francois Roets, +4 more
- 01 Oct 2007 - 
TL;DR: This study provides compelling evidence that mites are the primary vectors of infructescence-associated Ophiostoma spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

- 30 Sep 2016 -

Female Fertility and Mating Type Distribution in a South African Population of Fusarium subglutinans f. sp. pini

H. Britz, +4 more
- 01 Jun 1998 - 
TL;DR: The effective population number, Ne, of this population is determined by using mating type and male/hermaphrodite polymorphisms as indicators and, depending upon assumptions about mutation and selection, sexual reproduction need occur only once per 26 to 153 asexual generations to maintain this level of sexual fertility.
