Systematic Characterization of bZIP Transcription Factors Required for Development and Aflatoxin Generation by High-Throughput Gene Knockout in <i>Aspergillus flavus</i>

Systematic Characterization of bZIP Transcription Factors Required for Development and Aflatoxin Generation by High-Throughput Gene Knockout in <i>Aspergillus flavus</i>

The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) is an important transcription factor required for fungal development, nutrient utilization, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, and defense against various stresses. <i>Aspergillus flavus</i> is a major producer of aflatoxin and an opportunistic fungus...
