Identification of a common secondary mutation in the Neurospora crassa knockout collection conferring a cell fusion-defective phenotype

ABSTRACT Gene-deletion mutants represent a powerful tool to study gene function. The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is a well-established model organism, and features a comprehensive gene knockout strain collection. While these mutant strains have been used in numerous studies, resulting in th...
