Comparative analysis of lifecycle-dependent A to I RNA editing in three members of the Microbotryum violaceum fungal complex

Shikhi Baruri, Nasara Shamsudeen, Alycia C. R. Lackey, Joseph P. Ham, Michael H. Perlin

This study characterizes A-to-I RNA editing across lifecycle stages in three Microbotryum violaceum fungal species, identifying stage-specific and strain-specific editing patterns and their potential functional implications.

Repeated loss of function at HD mating-type genes and of recombination suppression without mating-type locus linkage in anther-smut fungi

Elise A. Lucotte, Paul Jay, Quentin Rougemont, Loreleï Boyer, Amandine Cornille, Alodie Snirc, Amandine Labat, Elizabeth Chahine, Marine Duhamel, Alice Namias, Jacob Gendelman, Wen‐Juan Ma, Roxanne Kaaren Hayes, Shikhi Baruri, Joseph P. Ham, , Tatiana Giraud

The paper shows that HD mating-type genes have lost function in three Microbotryum species, with PR genes controlling mating compatibility, and reports evolutionary strata from recombination suppression.
