Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "International Microbiology"
DOI: 10.1007/s10123-019-00085-1
Abstract: Asexual development, conidiation, in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is a simple developmental process that starts with the growth of aerial hyphae. Then, the formation of constrictions and subsequent maturation gives rise to the mature… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13059-020-02060-w
Abstract: Repeat-induced point (RIP) mutation in Neurospora crassa degrades transposable elements by targeting repeats with C→T mutations. Whether RIP affects core genomic sequence in important ways is unknown. By parent-offspring whole genome sequencing, we estimate a… read more here.
