Transcriptome analysis reveals new insight into appressorium formation and function in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae
2008
Background
Rice blast disease is caused by the filamentous Ascomycetous fungus Magnaporthe oryzae and results in significant annual rice yield losses worldwide. Infection by this and many other fungal plant pathogens requires the development of a specialized infection cell called an appressorium. The molecular processes regulating appressorium formation are incompletely understood.
