The paper examines how organelle content scales with cell volume in a fungus with a large size range, finding that some organelles scale with volume while others do not.

The paper studies organelle inheritance in the multi-budding yeast Aureobasidium pullulans, finding that some organelles are evenly distributed while others are variably inherited.

This study shows that the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans can position cytokinetic machinery at bud necks without septins, suggesting a novel CAR positioning strategy.

The paper introduces a genetic mutation that allows phalloidin staining of F-actin in ascomycete fungi by reverting a single amino acid change in actin.

This study examines mitotic nuclear segregation in the multibudding yeast Aureobasidium pullulans, revealing distinct mechanisms compared to uninucleate yeasts.

The paper investigates how a multi-budding yeast partitions growth equally among its buds, revealing that actin cable networks enable even partitioning without compensatory mechanisms.

The paper designs and tests 25 optimized vectors for genetic engineering of Aureobasidium pullulans, enabling dual protein expression and homology-based gene modification.

The paper identifies Pak1 as a key protein mediating negative feedback in yeast to enable multiple polarity sites and budding.
