The <i>Ustilago maydis</i> transcription factor Nit2 regulates nitrate utilization during biotrophy and influences organic nitrogen metabolism in infected maize leaves under nitrogen limitation

2025-01-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Little is known on how filamentous phytopathogens adapt to nitrogen limitation in the host plant. In previous work, we have shown that the transcription factor Nit2 plays a major role for the utilization of non-favored nitrogen sources like nitrate, minor amino acids or nucleobases in saprotrophic sporidia of the basidiomycete corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis . Here, we employed Δnit2 mutants...
