PhD Research

Title: Assessment of gene functions related to vegetative and sexual cell fusion in Neurospora crassa.

Advisor: Kondratenko, Elena Igorevna, Head of Chair, Professor, Molecular Biology, Genetics and Biochemistry, Astrakhan State University, Astrakhan, Russia.

Details: The objectives of the research were to find out the genes related to vegetative and sexual cell fusion and evaluate the comparative functional effects of those genes on the developmental steps during both fertilization and vegetative cell growth in different strains of Neurospora crassa.
