Role of the 4-Phosphopantetheinyl Transferase of Trichoderma virens in Secondary Metabolism and Induction of Plant Defense Responses

Trichoderma virens is a ubiquitous soil fungus successfully used in biological control due to its efficient colonization of plant roots. In fungi, 4-phosphopantetheinyl transferases (PPTases) activate enzymes involved in primary and secondary metabolism. Therefore, we cloned the PPTase gene ppt1 fro...
