Levels of specificity of Xylaria species associated with fungusgrowing termits a phylogenetic approach (2009)

Visser, A.A., Ros, V.I.D., Debets, A.J.M., Kuyper, T.W., ...

Fungus-growing termites live in obligate mutualistic symbiosis with species of the basidiomycete genus Termitomyces, which are cultivated on a substrate of dead plant material. When the termite...

The social evolution of somatic fusion (2008)

Aanen, D.K., Debets, A.J.M., Hoekstra, R.F.

The widespread potential for somatic fusion among different conspecific multicellular individuals suggests that such fusion is adaptive. However, because recognition of non-kin (allorecognition)...

Cell cultures from the symbiotic soft coral Sinularia flexibilis (2008)

Khalesi, M.K., Vera-Jimenez, N.I., Aanen, D.K., Beeftink, H.H., Wijffels, R.H.

The symbiotic octocoral Sinularia flexibilis is a producer of potential pharmaceuticals. Sustainable mass production of these corals as a source of such compounds demands innovative approaches,...

Patterns of interaction specificity of fungus-growing termites and Termitomyces symbionts in South Africa (2007)

Aanen, D.K., Ros, V.I.D., Licht, H.H.D., Mitchel, J., Beer, Z.W. De, Slippers, B., ...

Background: Termites of the subfamily Macrotermitinae live in a mutualistic symbiosis with basidiomycete fungi of the genus Termitomyces. Here, we explored interaction specificity in fungus-growing...

Presumptive horizontal symbiont transmission in the fungus-growing termite Macrotermes natalensis (2006)

Boomsma, J.J., Aanen, D.K.

All colonies of the fungus-growing termite Macrotermes natalensis studied so far are associated with a single genetically variable lineage of Termitomyces symbionts. Such limited genetic variation of...

The evolution of non-reciprocal nuclear exchange in mushrooms as a consequence of genomic conflict (2004)

Aanen, D.K., Kuyper, T.W., Debets, A.J.M., Hoekstra, R.F.

Heterothallic mushrooms accomplish sex by exchanging nuclei without cytoplasm. Hyphal fusions occur between haploid mycelia resulting from germinated spores and subsequent reciprocal nuclear exchange...

A widely distributed ITS polymorphism within a biological species of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma velutipes (2001)

Aanen, D.K., Kuyper, T.W., Hoekstra, R.F.

The ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma velutipes consists of two biological species (BSP 16 and 17). Within BSP 17 a dikaryon was found with two divergent types of the ribosomal Internal Transcribed...
