Meiotic-like Recombination in Vegetative Dikaryons of SCHIZOPHYLLUM COMMUNE.
نویسنده
چکیده
A total of 65 Schizophyllum commune dikaryons of three different genotypes were synthesized, maintained on agar plates, prevented from fruiting, and macerated. The macerate was plated. Germlings of homokaryotic morphology were isolated using no chemical or genetic selection, grown, and tested for recombinant genotypes. Crossover types were plentiful among the homokaryons with recombinant genotypes, indicating that meiotic-like processes in vegetative dikaryons are common and may be as important as conventional basidial meiosis in the origin of recombinant strains.

Developmental regulation of amylase activity during fruiting of Schizophyllum commune.
During the development of fruit bodies of Schizophyllum commune there is a minimum 10- to 15-fold increase in amylase activity. There is little or no activity in homokaryons or dikaryons. The activity is found early after the onset of morphogenesis and increases until the fruit bodies are mature. Inhibition studies with CO(2) indicate that the activity is directly associated with fruiting, as a...
متن کاملInternuclear Genetic Transfer in Vegetative Dikaryons of SCHIZOPHYLLUM COMMUNE: I. Di-Mon Mating Analysis.
A series of hemi-compatible dikaryon x monokaryon (di-mon) matings was designed to determine whether there was any genetic interaction between the dikaryotic nuclei. One of the nuclei in each dikaryon was known to carry a recessive gene (mnd) that promoted the development of an abnormal growth form, mound. Dikaryons containing both mnd( +) and mnd nuclei produced mosaic colonies that consisted ...
متن کاملA common-AB diploid of Schizophyllum commune.
N Schizophyllum commune, a heterothallic basidiomycete, compatibility is con' trolled by two unlinked mating factors, A and B. Matings between two strains with dissimilar A and B factors (i.e. AI BI x A2 B2) result in the establishment of the dikaryon, tho secondary mycelium, which possesses two haploid nuclei per cell. The diploid phase, normally confined to the basidium borne on the dikarycm,...
متن کاملSomatic 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...
متن کاملNew Mutations and a 7-Chromosome Linkage Map of SCHIZOPHYLLUM COMMUNE.
Forty-eight useful new mutations of S. commune were obtained by mutagenesis with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. Their requirements and meiotic linkage relationships to each other and previously mapped areas were investigated. Several of these new mutations were incorporated into diploid strains so that the diploids contained at least one marker on every linkage group. Analysis of somatic...
