title: Sexual differentiation and interactions in yeasts.
abstract: Results of analytical studies on sex-specific substances, together with behavioural analysis of mating yeast cells, allow some comprehension of the mechanisms regulating the mating reaction of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Interspecific and intergeneric sexual interactions are studied with the hope of elucidating the ecological and phylogenetic significance of sexual differentiation and interaction in yeasts.
