Abstract excerpt
Calcium signalling has profound implications in the fungal infection of plants and animals, during which a series of physiological and morphological transitions are required. In this article, using a model fungal pathogen, Magnaporthe oryzae, we demonstrate that the regulation of the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)](int)) is essential for fungal development and pathogenesis. Imaging of [Ca(2+)](int)...
