Jon Sullivan@jeffowski You can read more about the wild world of diverse fungal mating types in this article from Quanta magazine.
"those species that do have hundreds or thousands of mating types, Constable said, are known as some of “the most sexual fungi in the fungal kingdom.”"

Perhaps the most mesmerising, the Schizophyllum commune (Splitgill
CommunE). They have 23328 biological sexes (distinct mating types) W
individuals of any mating type are compatible for mating with most other mating
types. They remind me of ballgowns and fractals.
