Disruption of Signaling in a Fungal-Grass Symbiosis Leads to Pathogenesis
2 Jun 2010
Abstract excerpt
Symbiotic associations between plants and fungi are a dominant feature of many terrestrial ecosystems, yet relatively little is known about the signaling, and associated transcriptome profiles, that define the symbiotic metabolic state. Using the Epichloë festucae-perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) association as a model symbiotic experimental system, we show an essential role for the fungal stress-activated...
