Abstract excerpt
Cloning and disruption of fga1, the gene encoding the G protein alpha subunit FGA1 in phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum, has been reported previously, and the fga1 disruptants showed altered colony morphology, increased heat resistance, reduced conidiation and pathogenicity. To further evaluate the role of G protein signaling in this fungus, cloning of fga2, which encodes the second Galpha protein FGA2,...
