Efficient Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated target gene disruption in the maize pathogen Curvularia lunata
2016-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Curvularia lunata causes Curvularia leaf spot disease of maize, resulting in periodically significant yield losses around the world. To understand the molecular mechanisms of fungal pathogenicity and virulence factors contributed to the host, here we report a knockout transformation system against target genes. The concentration of conidia, Agrobacterium cell density, and method of co-incubation were optimized for...
