<i>Ustilago maydis</i> Secreted Endo-Xylanases Are Involved in Fungal Filamentation and Proliferation on and Inside Plants

Plant pathogenic fungi must be able to degrade host cell walls in order to penetrate and invade plant tissues. Among the plant cell wall degrading enzymes (PCWDEs) produced, xylanases are of special interest since its degradation target, xylan, is one of the main structural polysaccharides in plant...
