Homeobox transcription factor CoHox3 is essential for appressorium formation in the plant pathogenic fungus Colletotrichum orbiculare
2018-09-01
Abstract excerpt
The plant pathogenic fungus Colletotrichum orbiculare, which is the causal agent of cucumber anthracnose disease, forms dome-shaped, melanized appressoria as a host invasion structure. We found 10 conserved homeobox transcription factors based on genome analysis. In this study, we functionally analyzed one of the C. orbiculare homeobox gene named CoHox3 (Colletotrichum orbiculare Homeobox transcription factor 3) d...
