The genome sequence of the 'asexual' human pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus suggests it has the capability to undergo mating and meiosis. That this organism engages in clandestine sexual activity is also suggested by observations of two equally distributed complementary mating types in nature, the expression of mating type genes and evidence of recent genome recombination events.
“无性”人类致病真菌烟曲霉的基因组序列表明，它有进行交配和减数分裂的能力。在自然界中观察到两种均等分布的互补交配型、交配型基因的表达以及近期基因组重组事件的证据，也都表明这种生物体存在隐秘的有性活动。
