White Cells Facilitate Opposite- and Same-Sex Mating of Opaque Cells in Candida albicans
Modes of sexual reproduction in eukaryotic organisms are extremely diverse. The human fungal pathogen Candida albicans undergoes a phenotypic switch from the white to the opaque phase in order to become mating-competent. In this study, we report that functionally- and morphologically-differentiated...
