DNA methylation in Verticillium dahliae requires only one of three putative DNA methyltransferases, yet is dispensable for growth, development and virulence

Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background:</bold> DNA methylation is an important epigenetic control mechanism that in many fungi is restricted to genomic regions containing transposons. Two DNA methyltransferases, Dim2 and Dnmt5, are known to perform methylation at cytosines in fungi. While most ascomycete fungi encode both Dim2 and Dnmt5, only few functional studies have been performed in species containing b...
