Heterokaryosis, Parasexuality, and Yeast Life Cycles in Fungi
Summary :Explores heterokaryosis (co-existence of genetically different nuclei), parasexual cycle (somatic recombination), three types of yeast life cycles (haplobiontic, haplodiplobiontic, diplobiontic), and detailed coverage of Aspergillus reproduction showing conidiophore structures and sexual reproduction strategies in fungi.
