Cell cycle-dependent and independent mating blocks ensure fungal zygote survival and ploidy maintenance

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Aleksandar Vjeu0161tica and collaborators from the Department of Fundamental Microbiology, University of Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland have published the research work: Cell cycle-dependent and independent mating blocks ensure fungal zygote survival and ploidy maintenance, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors show that Mei3 promotes premeiotic S-phase independently of Mei2 and that cell cycle progression is both necessary and sufficient to reduce zygotic mating behaviors. The authors show that zygotic mating blocks not only prevent refertilization but also avert lysis caused by autocrine signaling postfertilization. The authors show that Mei3 promotes exit from . . .
