The bZIP Transcription Factor LtAP1 Modulates Oxidative Stress Tolerance and Virulence in the Peach Gummosis Fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromae
23 Sept 2021
Abstract excerpt
Lasiodiplodia theobromae is one of the primary causal agents in peach gummosis disease, leading to enormous losses in peach production. In our previous study, a redox-related gene, LtAP1 , from the fungus was significantly upregulated in peach shoots throughout infection. Here, we characterized LtAP1 , a basic leucine zipper transcription factor, during peach gummosis progression using the CRISPR-Cas9 system and...
