Two Metalloproteases VdM35-1 and VdASPF2 from Verticillium dahliae Are Required for Fungal Pathogenicity, Stress Adaptation, and Activating Immune Response of Host

ABSTRACT Verticillium dahliae is a soilborne fungus that causes destructive vascular wilt diseases in a wide range of plant hosts. In this study, we identified two M35 family metalloproteinases: VdM35-1 and VdASPF2, and investigated their function in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that VdM35-...
