Direct measurement of appressorium turgor using a molecular mechanosensor in the rice blast fungus <i>Magnaporthe oryzae</i>

2022-08-31

Abstract excerpt

Many plant pathogenic fungi forcibly enter their hosts to cause disease. The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae , for example, infects plants using a specialised infection cell called an appressorium, which generates enormous turgor to drive a rigid penetration peg through the rice leaf cuticle. While these vast internal pressures are a critical weapon in fungal host penetration, they have remained very challen...
