Unisexual reproduction promotes competition for mating partners in the global human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus deneoformans.

When competing for either the same MAT a or MAT α cells (except LH MAT α cells), although not all pairwise comparisons by t-test were significant due to the lack of contact when strains of no or low hyphal growth were involved, a significant trend by one-way ANOVA was observed that isolates with more hyphal growth yielded more double drug resistant colonies than isolates with reduced hyphal growth ( Fig 4C and S2 Table , seven group one-way ANOVA analyses are listed above pairwise Welch’s t-test analyses).
