Generation and Characterization of a Virulent Leptosphaeria maculans Isolate Carrying a Mutated AvrLm7 Gene Using the CRISPR/Cas9 System
11 Aug 2020
Abstract excerpt
Blackleg, caused by the fungal pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans, is the most important disease affecting canola (Brassica napus) crops worldwide. We employed the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas) system to generate the mutant isolate umavr7 from a point mutation of the AvrLm7 coding region in a L. maculans isolate (UMAvr7). Reverse transcription PCR and...
