Abstract excerpt
The zinc finger transcription factor Crz1 is an important downstream regulator of calcium-dependent signal transduction pathways in many organisms. The function of Crz1 in the wheat-head blight pathogen Fusarium graminearum remains unclear. In this study, we identified and functionally characterised FgCrz1A, a potential ortholog of yeast Crz1. The deletion mutant ΔFgCrz1A exhibited slower hyphal growth on basic...
