Sugars and pH: a clue to the regulation of fungal cell wall-degrading enzymes in plants.

2004-12-01

Abstract excerpt

In recent years, substantial progress has been made in understanding the role of cell wall-degrading enzymes in virulence of fungal pathogens using genetic tools. A homologous recombination-mediated targeted gene disruption of a single pectolytic gene decreased virulence in multiple fungal pathogens. Furthermore, differential regulation of a gene that encodes a cell wall-degrading enzyme during infection under dif...
