A guide to Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of the chytrid fungus Spizellomyces punctatus

2023-03-31

Abstract excerpt

Chytrid fungi play key ecological roles in aquatic ecosystems, and some species cause a devastating skin disease in frogs and salamanders. Despite their importance, little is known about the basic cell biology of chytrids. Additionally, chytrids occupy a unique phylogenetic position– sister to the well-studied Dikarya (the group including yeasts, sac fungi, and mushrooms) and related to animals– making chytrids us...
