HYD3, a conidial hydrophobin of the fungal entomopathogen <i>Metarhizium acridum</i> induces the immunity of its specialist host locust

2020-06-15

Abstract excerpt

Conidial hydrophobins in fungal pathogens of plants 1,2 , insects 3,4 , and humans 5,6 are required for fungal attachment and are associated with high virulence. They are believed to contribute to the pathogenesis of infection by preventing immune recognition 5,6 . Here, we refute this generalisation offering a more nuanced analysis. We show that MacHYD3, a hydrophobin located on the conidial surface of the sp...
