  • Detection of Sad genes in various species of Neurospora 

    Singh, Ashwin; Morris, Ryan; Shiu, Patrick (University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2005)
    Neurospora crassa is a haploid fungus that reproduces asexually during vegetative growth. However, in a nitrogen deficient environment, the two mating-type cells, A and a, can fuse together and enter the sexual cycle. ...

  • Investigating the relationship between repeated DNA and gene silencing in the model organism Neurospora crassa 

    Dripps, Isaac; Hammond, Thomas; Shiu, Patrick (University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
    In order to maintain genomic integrity, organisms must possess the capability to combat unwanted elements such as retroviruses and transposons. In the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa, the expression from repeated ...

  • Map-based cloning and characterization of meiotic drive resistance 

    Rehard, David G., 1987-; Hammond, Thomas; Shiu, Patrick (University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
    Recent sequencing of the Neurospora crassa genome by The Broad Institute, in collaboration with the Neurospora research community, has given considerable insight into the understanding of Neurospora's DNA as well as its ...

  • The role of RNAi genes in Neurospora crassa post-transcriptional gene silencing 

    Reustle, Lindsay A. (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
    Meiotic silencing was first identified in the bread mold Neurospora crassa (by our group and others) and has since been discovered in worms, mice, and humans. Neurospora is an excellent model organism in that it is ...
