Cell Cycle Control in Yeasts
The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe are unicellular ascomycetes, both of which are widely used as model systems for investigating a wide range of eukaryotic cellular and biological processes. There ar

Series Preface
Mycology, the study of fungi, originated as a subdiscipline of botany and was a descriptive discipline, largely neglected as an experimental science until the early years of this century. A seminal paper by Blakeslee in 1904 provided evidence for self-incompatibility, termed "heterothallism", and stimulated interest in studies related to the control of sexual reproduction in fungi by mating-type specificities. Soon to follow was the demonstration that sexually reproducing fungi exhibit Mendelian inhe
