Activation of the cAMP Pathway in Ustilago maydis Reduces Fungal Proliferation and Teliospore Formation in Plant Tumors
In the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis, mating of two haploid sporidia is a prerequisite for subsequent colonization of the host. Cyclic AMP (cAMP) and pheromone signals have been implicated in this developmental program. The cAMP pathway is also needed for subsequent fungal development in planta,...
