Characterization of the Multiple-Copy Host-Selective Toxin Gene, ToxB, in Pathogenic and Nonpathogenic Isolates of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis

Characterization of the Multiple-Copy Host-Selective Toxin Gene, ToxB, in Pathogenic and Nonpathogenic Isolates of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis

ToxB, a gene that encodes a 6.6-kDa host-selective toxin (HST), is present in several races of the wheat pathogen Pyrenophora tritici-repentis. To learn more about the multiple ToxB open reading frames (ORFs), six of the estimated nine copies from a race 5 isolate were cloned and analyzed. All six c...
