Neurospora crassa is a multicellular filamentous fungus, which has been an important model species since the 1920s. Work on Neurospora in the 1940s led to the one-gene-one-enzyme hypothesis.
It is particularly useful in the study of epigenetic and genome defense mechanisms, such as the repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) process for suppressing gene duplication, which is unique to fungi.
The Neurospora crassa genome is approximately 40Mb contained in 7 chromosomes. There are around 10,000 predicted protein-coding genes, which is more than double that of Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
