Abstract excerpt
Ferroptotic death of the developing conidia is important for pathogenicity of the blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, yet its regulatory mechanism is not fully elucidated in fungal cell. In this study, we found that elevated indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) promoted iron and lipid peroxide accumulation, leading to a higher degree of ferroptotic death of conidia. By characterising the IAA biosynthesis mutant, tam1Δ, we...
