Abstract excerpt
Aspergillus flavus is a fungus that produces aflatoxin B1, one of the most carcinogenic secondary metabolites. Understanding the regulation mechanism of aflatoxin biosynthesis in this fungus requires precise methods for genomic integration of mutant alleles. To avoid the disadvantage of DNA integration into the genome by non-homologous or ectopic recombination, we developed a novel strategy for site-specific...
