K., von Bargen, Katharina W., Studt, Lena, Niehaus, Eva- Maria, Espino, Jose J., Huß, Kathleen, Michielse, Caroline B., Albermann, Sabine, Wagner, Dominik, Bergner, Sonja V., Connolly, Lanelle R., Fischer, Andreas, Reuter, Gunter, Kleigrewe, Karin, Bald, Till, Wingfield, Brenda D., Ophir, Ron, Freeman, Stanley, Hippler, Michael, Smith, Kristina M., Brown, Daren W., Proctor, Robert H., Munsterkotter, Martin, Freitag, Michael, Humpf, Hans-Ulrich, Guldener, Ulrich, and Tudzynski, Bettina
Abstract:: The fungus Fusarium fujikuroi causes "bakanae" disease of rice due to its ability to produce gibberellins (GAs), but it is also known for producing harmful mycotoxins. However, the genetic capacity for the whole arsenal of natural compounds and their role in the fungus' interaction with rice remained unknown. Here, we...

Abstract:: Plant pathogens secrete an arsenal of small secreted proteins (SSPs) acting as effectors that modulate host immunity to facilitate infection. SSP-encoding genes are often located in particular genomic environments and show waves of concerted expression at diverse stages of plant infection. To date, little is known about the regulation of...

Abstract:: It has been hypothesized that horizontal gene/chromosome transfer and parasexual recombination following hyphal fusion between different strains may contribute to the emergence of wide genetic variability in plant pathogenic and other fungi. However, the significance of vegetative (heterokaryon) incompatibility responses, which commonly result in cell death, in preventing these processes...

Abstract:: The cereal pathogen Fusarium graminearum produces secondary metabolites toxic to humans and animals, yet coordinated transcriptional regulation of gene clusters remains largely a mystery. By chromatin immunoprecipitation and high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) we found that regions with secondary metabolite clusters are enriched for trimethylated histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3), a...

Abstract:: Fungi are a large group of eukaryotes found in nearly all ecosystems. More than 250 fungal genomes have already been sequenced, greatly improving our understanding of fungal evolution, physiology, and development. However, for the Pezizomycetes, an early-diverging lineage of filamentous ascomycetes, there is so far only one genome available, namely...
