Abstract: 1 fig. [Molecular study of genetic diversity of single-spore progeny and (indirectly) of breeding systems in Graphis scripta and Ochrolechia parella. "In both species, these markers revealed that spores from the same ascoma are genetically uniform, providing compelling evidence of homothallism."]
