Involvement of a G protein regulatory circuit in alternative oxidase production in Neurospora crassa

We previously identified a strain of N. crassa, that produces relatively high levels of aod-1 transcript under non-inducing conditions. Here we have crossed this strain to a standard lab strain and examined several progeny for aod-1 transcript levels under normal growth conditions. We determined the genomic sequence of the parents of the cross as well as three progeny with low levels of uninduced transcript and three with high levels of uninduced transcript.
