Versatile CRISPR/Cas9 Systems for Genome Editing in <i>Ustilago maydis</i>

The phytopathogenic smut fungus <i>Ustilago maydis</i> is a versatile model organism to study plant pathology, fungal genetics, and molecular cell biology. Here, we report several strategies to manipulate the genome of <i>U. maydis</i> by the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. These inc...
