Sentence examples for mating type in from inspiring English sources

Recent micro-morphological and experimental studies [ 47, 48] revealed that mating type in clade C is directly related to column (gynostemium) type, most often involving the presence or absence of the rostellum.

By contrast, mating type in the "borealis" clade is "karyonidal", meaning that each of the four new macronuclei (karyonides) formed in conjugating pair is independently determined for mating type.

Although in some species (B. humblotii, B. occultum, B. pusillium) selfing may have increased colonizing ability of neighbouring islands, such as La Réunion, all these taxa vary for mating type in Madagascar [ 48, 54].

Under these scenarios, further expansion of a nonrecombining region is not necessarily expected because a single step of recombination cessation is sufficient, as might have achieved centromere linkage of mating type in N. tetrasperma (Ellison et al. 2011).

While ascosporogenesis was not observed in these crosses, this finding hints at an involvement of pheromone receptors – even if not in the cognate mating type – in fruiting body formation.

But A. candida is usually heterothallic; the races we tested could all be the same mating type (and nothing is known about genes that specify mating type in this species), which would make crosses impossible.

This raises the intriguing possibility that C. castellii switches mating types in culture, whilst having no described sexual cycle, or that it is sexual and goes through a diploid phase.

Sexual reproduction in ascomycete fungi is controlled generally by two mating types (idiomorphs), labeled "A" and "B" or "1" and "2," akin to the "a" and "α" mating types in Saccharomyces, controlled by the MAT genes (Debuchy and Turgeon 2006; Haber 2012).

It was suggested, that the NIN-like family might have a role in life cycle or in mating type determination in Ectocarpus gametes [ 18].

Since homozygosity at the mating-type locus in diploid yeast can decrease the resistance to DNA damage and especially DSBs, we investigated whether deletions of our diploid-specific DOX resistance genes could affect mating type expression in diploids.

Expression of pheromone precursor genes appears clearly mating type specific in ascomycetes like C. parasitica, M. grisea, N. crassa and P. anserina while pheromone receptor genes show comparatively lower mating type specificity in N. crassa (Coppin et al., 2005; Karlsson et al., 2008; Kim and Borkovich, 2006; Pöggeler and Kück, 2001; Shen et al., 1999; Zhang et al., 1998).
