species are able to mate with themselves, while in heterothallic species only isolates of opposite mating types can mate. Mating between isogamous fungi...

mating types in a species were isogamous: the same size and both could move, catalogued only as "+" or "-" types.: 216  In anisogamy, the mating type...

Disassortative mating (also known as negative assortative mating or heterogamy) is a mating pattern in which individuals with dissimilar phenotypes mate with one...

Assortative mating (also referred to as positive assortative mating or homogamy) is a mating pattern and a form of sexual selection in which individuals...

populations are grouped into clonal lineages of these mating types and includes: A1 produces a mating hormone, a diterpene α1. Clonal lineages of A1 include:...

by modification of sexual function). Mixed mating systems, in which plants use two or even all three mating systems, are not uncommon. A number of models...

means that each yeast cell is of a certain mating type and can only mate with a cell of the other mating type. During vegetative growth that ordinarily...
