Vegetative Self and Nonself Recognition in Fungi
The concepts of self and nonself have been a subject of much study and discussion in biology and philosophy. A signifi cant volume of research on the subject has answered some but also generated many more questions. What defi nes self? What mechanisms control self and nonself recognition? What is the purpose of such a recognition system? A product of the post-World War II early immunology movem...

متن کاملFrom Self to Nonself: The Nonself Theory
The maintenance/strength of self is a very core concept in Western psychology and is particularly relevant to egoism, a process that draws on the hedonic principle in pursuit of desires. Contrary to this and based on Buddhism, a nonself-cultivating process aims to minimize or extinguish the self and avoid desires, leading to egolessness or selflessness. The purpose of this paper is to present t...
متن کاملEvolution and Diversity of a Fungal Self/Nonself Recognition Locus
BACKGROUND Self/nonself discrimination is an essential feature for pathogen recognition and graft rejection and is a ubiquitous phenomenon in many organisms. Filamentous fungi, such as Neurospora crassa, provide a model for analyses of population genetics/evolution of self/nonself recognition loci due to their haploid nature, small genomes and excellent genetic/genomic resources. In N. crassa, ...
متن کاملXenogeneic rejection among three botryllids (compound Ascidians).
Xenogeneic rejection was observed among colonies of three botryllids, Botryllus scalaris, Botryllus primigenus, and Botrylloides simodensis. Allogeneic recognition occurs in each of these species, but the manner of allogeneic rejection differs among them. We studied xenogeneic rejection reactions among these species under the following conditions: colony contact at natural growing edges, colony...
