Extended Data Fig. 1: Mating of clinical C. albicans strains.

A. Images of white cells (left), white colonies with opaque sectors indicated by white arrows (center), and opaque cells (right). The genetic background of each strain is indicated at the left. Scale bar = 10 µm. B. A representative flow plot is given of SC5314 and 529 L parental strains and two independent mating products stained for DNA content with SYTOX Green. The two peaks indicate DNA content at G1 and G2 in the cell cycle. No gating was performed as part of this experiment. C. Tetraploid mating products of SC5314x529L were stained for DNA with 25 μg/mL 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI). Scale bar = 5 μm.
