Relationship between deficiency of phosphoglucose isomerase in Coprinus macrorhizus and fruiting body formation.
A mutant (pgi) of Coprinus macrorhizus deficient in phosphoglucose isomerase did not grow on fructose and grew poorly on glucose. The pgi mutation inhibited the formation of monokaryotic and dikaryotic fruiting bodies.
