ham-2	A hyphal fusion mutant gene. The mutant has a greatly reduced ability to fuse with itself or with wild type strains. The ability of the ham-2 mutant to fuse is reduced by a factor of a thousand fold when compared to wild type. Other phenotypes of the ham-2 mutant strains include a reduced growth rate, short aerial hyphae and female sterility.		B
