GcSTUA, an APSES Transcription Factor, Is Required for Generation of Appressorial Turgor Pressure and Full Pathogenicity of Glomerella cingulata

Glomerella cingulata, which infects a number of different hosts, gains entry to the plant tissue by means of an appressorium. Turgor pressure generated within the appressorium forces a penetration peg through the plant cuticle. A visible lesion forms as the fungus continues to grow within the host....
