The global regulator LaeA controls biosynthesis of host-specific toxins, pathogenicity and development of Alternaria alternata pathotypes

2016-05-01

Abstract excerpt

The global regulator LaeA is required for the expression of biosynthetic genes for secondary metabolites in filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus nidulans. To learn more about the regulation of these genes in Alternaria alternata, which has at least seven pathogenic variants (pathotypes) that produce host-specific toxins (HSTs) and cause severe diseases in their host plants, we identified LaeA homologs encoding me...
