The homologue of het-c of Neurospora crass lacks vegetative compatibility function in Fusarium proliferatum
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to identify the homologue of the Neurospora crassa het-c gene in Fusarium proliferatum and to determine if this gene has a vegetative compatibility function in this economically important and widely dispersed fungal pathogen. F. proliferatum showed few differences in the DNA sequence but the changes did not alter amino acid sequence of the resulting protein suggesting that the vegetative compatibility phenotype may result form convergent evolution.

Mating type sequences in asexually reproducing Fusarium species
Article Abstract:
A robust PCR-based method suitable for the identification of mating type in several Fusarium species with no known sexual stage was developed. This PCR method facilitates the recognition of potentially compatible strains that could be used in crossing experiments to obtain telemorphic structures.
