The Aspergillus nidulans rcoA gene is required for veA-dependent sexual development.
Genetics 20060915 3
The Aspergillus nidulans rcoADelta mutant exhibits growth and developmental defects. We show that the rcoADelta mutant lacks cleistothecia and is self-sterile. In crosses with wild-type strains, rcoADelta nuclei do not contribute to the cleistothecial walls. Furthermore, sexual development resulting from veA overexpression is rcoA dependent, indicating that rcoA lies downstream of veA in the sexual development pathway. ...[more]
