Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein Sre1 Mediates the Development and Pathogenicity of the Grey Mould Fungus Botrytis cinerea

Abstract excerpt

The grey mould fungus Botrytis cinerea is a dangerous plant pathogen responsible for substantial agricultural losses worldwide. The pathogenic mechanisms still have many unclear aspects, and numerous new pathogenic genes remain to be identified. Here, we show that the sterol regulatory element-binding protein Sre1 plays an important role in the development and pathogenicity of B. cinerea. We identified a...
