Spatial and temporal disequilibrium of nuclear distribution in heterothallic Morchella importuna

Our previous study found that isolates from morel stipes showed a large proportion of mating type deletion, which implied the nuclear evolution and spatial heterogeneity. In this paper, the specific mating type genes of Mat1-1-1 and Mat1-2-1 in Morchella importuna were analyzed using the relative qu...
