The use of Fusarium secondary metabolite biosynthetic genes in chemotypic and phylogenetic studies.

Abstract excerpt

Fusarium genus contains a large number of species which occur in all climate zones and are pathogenic to agriculturally important crops. The majority of the species produce secondary metabolites, many of which are toxic to plants, animals and humans. The core biosynthetic genes display conserved organization (gene clusters), and a common expression pattern due to synchronized regulation. Although broadly...
