Modeling the consequences of the dikaryotic life cycle of mushroom-forming fungi on genomic conflict
Generally, sexual organisms contain two haploid genomes, one from each parent, united in a single diploid nucleus of the zygote which links their fate during growth. A fascinating exception to this is Basidiomycete fungi, where the two haploid genomes remain separate in a dikaryon, retaining the opt...
