The Ustilago maydis ubc4 and ubc5 Genes Encode Members of a MAP Kinase Cascade Required for Filamentous Growth

Ustilago maydis, the causal agent of corn smut disease, displays dimorphic growth in which it alternates between a budding haploid saprophyte and a filamentous dikaryotic pathogen. We are interested in identifying the genetic determinants of filamentous growth and pathogenicity in U. maydis. To do t...
