Abstract: Pheromones play essential roles in reproduction in many species. Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) acts as a female reproductive hormone and as a sex pheromone in some species. An olfactory receptor (OR) for PGF2α was recently discovered… read more here.

Abstract: Sexual and asexual development in filamentous ascomycetes is controlled by components of conserved signaling pathways. Here, we investigated the development of mutant strains lacking genes for kinases MAK2, MEK2, and MIK2, as well as the… read more here.
