Abstract:
:When two colonies of the tunicate Botryllus contact each other, they either fuse into a single colony or mount a destructive reaction, which keeps them apart. Which of the two reactions takes place is determined by a single, highly polymorphic fusion/histocompatibility (FuHC) locus. Recent communications report the cloning and characterization of the FuHC locus and suggest that its function may be to protect against parasitism by conspecific stem cells.
