Phenotype: does not mate when grown at high temperature

This is a temperature-sensitive, sex-limited mutant defective in gamete fusion. When incubated overnight in N-free medium at the restrictive temperature, gam10 mt- cells can agglutinate with mt+ gametes, signal, activate their mating structures and adhere via their mating structures with activated wt+ mating structures but they cannot fuse. The gam11 mutant has a similar phenotype, but was independently isolated.
