A MADS‐box transcription factor MoMcm1 is required for male fertility, microconidium production and virulence in <i>Magnaporthe oryzae</i>
28 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
Appressorium formation is a key step in the infection cycle of Magnaporthe oryzae. Mst12 is a transcription factor essential for appressorium penetration and invasive growth. In this study we used the affinity purification approach to identify proteins that physically associate with Mst12. One of the Mst12-interacting genes identified was MoMCM1, which encodes a MADS-box protein orthologous to yeast Mcm1. MoMcm1...
