Abstract excerpt
Subtilisin-like serine protease secreted by pathogenic fungi can facilitate the infection and acquisition of nutrients. Functions of subtilisin-like serine proteases in the phytopathogenic fungus Alternaria alternata remains unknown. In the current study, 15 subtilisin-like serine proteases were individually deleted in the citrus fungal pathogen A. alternata. Only one, designated AaPrb1, was found to be required...
