Abstract excerpt
Heterotrimeric G-proteins play key roles in the transduction of extracellular signals to various downstream effectors in eukaryotes. In our previous study, a T-DNA insertional mutant A1-412, in which the promoter of a putative Gγ subunit gene MGG1 was disrupted, was impaired in asexual/sexual sporulation, appressorium formation, and pathogenicity in Magnaporthe oryzae. Here the roles of MGG1 in regulating fungal...
