The histone deacetylase UvHOS2 regulates vegetative growth, conidiation, ustilaginoidin synthesis, and pathogenicity in Ustilaginoidea virens
Abstract Ustilaginoidea virens causes rice false smut, one of the most devastating rice diseases. The pathogen produces various types of mycotoxins, such as ustilaginoidins and ustiloxins, which are harmful to both human and animal health. Histone deacetylases in fungi play an important role in regu...
