Fungi are a diverse group of organisms with a huge variation in reproductive strategy. While almost all species can reproduce sexually, many reproduce asexually most of the time. When sexual ...

A type of fungi studied by a team of biologists for their sexual reproduction strategies are commonly known as Sword-belt Mushrooms. In addition to the European Sword-belt Mushroom (Cyclocybe aegerita ...

THERE is a great demand among university students in botany for modern text-books dealing with the fungi. Broadly speaking, two works are needed : a relatively small book dealing briefly but clearly ...

WE are grateful for the clear genetical interpretation of heterothallism given by Dr. K. Mather 1, and may perhaps be allowed to carry his conclusions regarding reproduction in fungi a step further.

The ‘paradox of sex’ refers to the puzzle of why the sexual mode of reproduction is more common among living beings than the asexual mode. Sexual reproduction requires at least two mates, exposes ...

Fungi-eating orchids were found for the first time to offer their flowers to fungi-eating fruit flies in exchange for pollination, which is the first evidence for nursery pollination in orchids. This ...

Analysis of 309 strains suggests that the genus Escovopsis originated about 56.9 million years ago, but did not begin interacting with modern mutualistic ants until roughly 38 million years ...
