Transcription factor Amr1 induces melanin biosynthesis and suppresses virulence in Alternaria brassicicola.

Alternaria brassicicola is a successful saprophyte and necrotrophic plant pathogen. Several A. brassicicola genes have been characterized as affecting pathogenesis of Brassica species. To study regulatory mechanisms of pathogenesis, we mined 421 genes in silico encoding putative transcription factor...
