Multiple separate cases of pseudogenized meiosis genes Msh4 and Msh5 in Eurotiomycete fungi: associations with Zip3 sequence evolution and homothallism, but not Pch2 losses

The paper investigates independent pseudogenization of meiosis genes in Eurotiomycete fungi, finding no direct link between Pch2 loss and other gene losses but evidence of molecular coevolution between Msh4, Msh5, and Zip3.
