Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the simultaneous integration of two or more copies of a polynucleotide of interest into the chromosome of a fungal host cell comprising at least two pairs of recognition sequences of a site-specific recombinase, each pair flanking a resident negative selection marker; transformation of the cell with a construct carrying a gene of interest also flanked by the recognition sequences to ensure double-crossover events after transient expression of the recombinase, followed by selection for excision of all negative selection markers from the cell.
