Magnaporthe grisea pathogenicity genes obtained through insertional mutagenesis.
We have initiated a mutational analysis of pathogenicity in the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, in which hygromycin-resistant transformants, most generated by restriction enzyme-mediated integration (REMI), were screened for the ability to infect plants. A rapid primary infection assay facilitated screening of 5,538 transformants. Twenty-seven mutants were obtained that showed a reproduc...
متن کاملMagnaporthe grisea Genes for Pathogenicity and Virulence Through a Series of Backcrosses
We have identified genes for pathogenicity toward rice (Oryza sativa) and genes for virulence toward specific rice cultivars in the plant pathogenic fungus Magnaporthe grisea. A genetic cross was conducted between the weeping lovegrass (Eragrostis curvula) pathogen 4091-5-8, a highly fertile, hermaphroditic laboratory strain, and the rice pathogen 0-135, a poorly fertile, female-sterile field i...
متن کاملA fungal metallothionein is required for pathogenicity of Magnaporthe grisea.
The causal agent of rice blast disease, the ascomycete fungus Magnaporthe grisea, infects rice (Oryza sativa) plants by means of specialized infection structures called appressoria, which are formed on the leaf surface and mechanically rupture the cuticle. We have identified a gene, Magnaporthe metallothionein 1 (MMT1), which is highly expressed throughout growth and development by M. grisea an...
متن کاملRegulatory Genes Controlling MPG1 Expression and Pathogenicity in the Rice Blast Fungus Magnaporthe grisea.
MPG1, a pathogenicity gene of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea, is expressed during pathogenesis and in axenic culture during nitrogen or glucose limitation. We initiated a search for regulatory mutations that would impair nitrogen metabolism, MPG1 gene expression, and pathogenicity. First, we developed a pair of laboratory strains that were highly fertile and pathogenic toward barley. ...
