The Magnaporthe grisea class VII chitin synthase is required for normal appressorial development and function.

Molecular plant pathology - 1 Jan 2009

Odenbach Dominik, Thines Eckhard, Anke Heidrun, Foster Andrew J

Abstract excerpt

The plant pathogenic fungus Magnaporthe grisea is able to enter its host via appressorium-mediated penetration. Earlier investigations have shown that these infection structures are rich in the cell wall polysaccharide chitin. Previously, we have described how the transcription of a class VII chitin synthase-encoding gene CHS7 is completely dependent on the putative transcription factor Con7p during the...
