Penetration Peg Formation and Invasive Hyphae Development Require Stage-Specific Activation of MoGTI1 in Magnaporthe oryzae
The hemibiotrophic pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae causes one of the most destructive diseases in cultivated rice.Complex infection-related morphogenesis and production of various effectors are known to be important for successful colonization and disease development.In this study, we characterized the activation of the MoGTI1 transcription factor and
