Ultrastructural Changes and Biochemical Events in Basidiospore Germination of Schizophyllum commune

Hexose Monophosphate Metabolism during Basidiospore Germination in Schizophyllum Commune.

Somatic recombination in Schizophyllum commune.

A CONSIDERABLE effort has been put forth in the past few years to elucidate the mechanisms of internuclear genetic exchange in vegetative mycelia in the fungi (PONTECORVO 1956; RAPER 1959; DAY 1960a). PONTECORVO (1956) described a system whereby, following the formation of a heterokaryon and a diploid nucleus, the phenomenon of crossing-over was a process distinct from that of haploidization. C...

Fruiting Dikaryon of Schizophyllum commune

The patterns of polypeptides synthesized by two co-isogenic monokaryons and the derived dikaryon of the basidiomycete Schizophyflum commune, growing in surface culture, were compared by two-dimensional PAGE after labelling with [35S]sulphate. Synthesis of most of the polypeptides (400 analysed) was common but at day 3 some 30 polypeptides were synthesized in the dikaryon which were not seen in ...

The Genetics of Schizophyllum Commune.

URING the course of an investigation on sexuality and related phenomena Din the common wood-rotting mushroom, Schizophyllum commune, a continuing search has been maintained for appropriate genetic markers for use in the work. A wide variety of morphologically aberrant and biochemically deficient strains has accordingly been tested for single locus segregation and for possible linkage with the f...

Biochemical Aspects of Protein Changes in Seed Physiology and Germination

Seed storage proteins are synthesized as sources of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur for the next generation of plants. Reactive oxygen species serve as second messengers for signal transduction; however, molecular targets of oxidant signaling have not been defined. Here, many researchers showes that ligand–receptor mediated signaling promotes reactive oxygen species– dependent protein carbonylation...
