Abstract excerpt
Fusarium verticillioides is a major pathogen of corn and poses a significant risk to human health by producing mycotoxins that accumulate in kernels. Considerable efforts have focused on identifying genes involved in secondary metabolism and pathogenesis. The availability of a sequenced genome accelerates gene discovery and characterization, but functional genomics approaches are hindered when disruption of a...
