Gap closed in the genetic map of fungi: Research team sequences genome of Pyronema confluens An international research team has sequenced the genome of the ascomycete Pyronema confluens, thus closing a gap in the genetic map of fungi. For the first time, scientists have shown for fungi that, in the entire genome, those genes that are active during the sexual development evolve more rapidly than other genes. A similar effect was already described for animals and plants; for fungi ...

Gap closed in the genetic map of kingdom fungi ( Ruhr-University Bochum ) An international research team headed by Dr. Minou Nowrousian from the Ruhr-Universität Bochum has sequenced the genome of the ascomycete Pyronema confluens, thus closing a gap in the genetic map of fungi. For the first time, scientists have shown for fungi that, in the entire genome, those genes that are active during the sexual development evolve more rapidly than ...
