Abstract:
:In this review, we give a summary of recent examples of hybridisation in fungi. Reports on hybridisation between pathogenic fungi infecting plants have increased during the last decade. Hybrids of plant pathogens may create devastating new diseases on both cultivated and wild plants; at the same time, hybridisation is one of the natural processes in the course of evolution of new taxa.

杂志文章,评审abstract::The iron-limitation-inducible protein FrpB of Neisseria meningitidis is an outer-membrane-localized siderophore receptor. Because of its abundance and its capacity to elicit bactericidal antibodies, it is considered a vaccine candidate. Bactericidal antibodies against FrpB are, however, type-specific. Hence, an FrpB-b...
