CRISPR/dCas9-Mediated Gene Silencing in Two Plant Fungal Pathogens

ABSTRACT Magnaporthe oryzae and Ustilaginoidea virens are two filamentous fungal pathogens that threaten rice production worldwide. Genetic tools that permit fast gene deletion and silencing are of great interest for functional genomics of fungal pathogens. As a revolutionary genome editing tool, cl...
