Cellulases Belonging to Glycoside Hydrolase Families 6 and 7 Contribute to the Virulence of Magnaporthe oryzae
Upon infection, phytopathogenic fungi secrete an array of hydrolytic enzymes that can degrade components of the host epidermis, including waxes, the cuticle, and cell walls. Cellulases, which can hydrolyze crystalline cellulose in the plant cell wall, are among these hydrolytic enzymes. Here, we pro...
