The scope for nuclear selection within Termitomyces fungi associated with fungus-growing termites is limited

BACKGROUND: We investigate the scope for selection at the level of nuclei within fungal individuals (mycelia) of the mutualistic Termitomyces cultivated by fungus-growing termites. Whereas in most basidiomycete fungi the number and kind of nuclei is strictly regulated to be two per cell, in Termitom...
