Functional Analysis of a Multicopy Host-Selective ACT-Toxin Biosynthesis Gene in the Tangerine Pathotype of Alternaria alternata Using RNA Silencing
Alternaria brown spot, caused by the tangerine pathotype of Alternaria alternata, is a serious disease of commercially important tangerines and their hybrids. The pathogen produces host-selective ACT toxin, and several genes (named ACTT) responsible for ACT-toxin biosynthesis have been identified. T...
