A single meiotic product dominates inheritance in Mucor circinelloides
Meiosis is a major source of genetic diversity, yet it remains poorly understood in many pathogenic fungi. In Mucorales, the causative agents of mucormycosis, sexual reproduction has been difficult to study, and reported inheritance patterns have appeared inconsistent with conventional meiosis. Here, meiosis in Mucor circinelloides was demonstrated at genome-wide resolution by generating…
