Common accommodation mechanisms for mutualistic and detrimental fungi in Oryza sativa (rice) roots
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Rice roots engage in symbiosis with ancient symbiotic fungi such as R. irregularis, whilst resisting invasion of the detrimental fungus M. oryzae, a major causative agent of the rice blast (leaf) disease. M. oryzae can also invade rice roots with simple non-melanised hyphopodia formed on the rice root surface, very similar to R. irregularis. This similarity in behaviour has raised questions whether the biotrophic...
