A screen for Neurospora knockout mutants displaying growth rate dependent ...

Fungal Biology (2011)

Michael K Watters, Michael Boersma, Melodie Johnson, Ciara Reyes, et al.

Branch density (the spatial distribution of branch initiation points along a growing hypha) in wild-type Neurospora has been shown to ...

Strain-Dependent Relationship Between Growth Rate and Hyphal Branching in Neurospora ...

Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science (2008)

Michael K Watters, Erik Lindamood, Margaret Meunich and Ryan Vetor

In a previous study of branch frequency in Neurospora crassa focused on the wild-type, no relationship between growth rate and ...

Branch initiation in Neurospora is influenced by events at the ...

Mycological Research (2000)

Michael K Watters, Aleksandra Virag, Jennifer Haynes and Anthony J.F. Griffiths

Growth in Neurospora proceeds by the highly polarised extension of hyphal tips and the formation of new tips (branches). While ...

A homeostatic set point for branching in Neurospora crassa

Mycological Research (2000)

Michael K Watters, Christine Humphries, Ingrid De Vries and Anthony J.F. Griffiths

The mechanisms responsible for controlling hyphal extension and branching are still poorly understood. We have investigated these processes by studying ...

Genetics (1999)

Michael K Watters, Thomas A Randall, Brian S Margolin, Eric U Selker, et al.

In Neurospora crassa, DNA sequence duplications are detected and altered efficiently during the sexual cycle by a process known as ...

Spontaneous Mutation During the Sexual Cycle of Neurospora crassa

Genetics (1995)

Michael K Watters and David R Stadler

The DNA sequences of 42 spontaneous mutations of the mtr gene in Neurospora crassa have been determined. The mutantws ere ...

Testing the Potential of Using Fungi to Convert Human Waste ...

Symposium on Undergraduate Research and Creative Expression (SOURCE) (2011)
